WOW! I think the pics say it all....this spectacular specimen is about the most phantomed fluorite you could ask for, with dozens of receding 3-dimensional internal phantoms of different shades of blue and purple. It is simply spectacular. Note also how the cluster of fluorites rests attractively on a plate of quartz, and is complete all around 360 degrees (damn near pristine, too!) ! I got this from Ed David in a trade earlier in the year but it was a "fixer-upper" that needed to have about 2 pounds of ungainly matrix removed from it, and I only just got it back from the prep lab. So, it is not technically new from Munich but it is new to my inventory now, so here it is... 8.9 x 8.4 x 5.6 cm
