An outstanding doubly-terminated large single crystal of Zircon. Every mm of this 4.7 cm crystal is lustrous - even the back that was once contacted has healed over and is lustrous. The edges are beveled along the bases of the pyramidal terminations, and the deep cinnamon & root beer color is very attractive. An aesthetic and important specimen of huge size and heft for this locale. Certainly an old-time specimen. Weighs 114 grams. Ex. Charlie Key.
