I have seen a LOT of these over the last few years, trickle out in spurts periodically. However, of them all, this one has the richest raspberry-purple color and deep hue of any I have seen. Some people dismiss these as "deco rocks" because they are more or less common on the market at the moment. However, this one stands above and is really in the top 1 percentile of all of them for color and visual impact. It is also very aesthetic overall, and undamaged, and fairly large. Do not underestimate them because they are Mexican and not Illinois - someday, they'll be gone too!
