A very large and very sharp 6-cm zircon crystal, with smaller zircon crystals on a small portion of matrix. It has small damage/wear on the leading termination but in context to size and price, this is acceptable for me. This is a classic crystal from a classic old locality for the species! Specimens of this size are nearly impossible to obtain today and I have seen only a few in the last decade or so turn up, from old collections. Ex Rolf Wein Collection
