This is a huge crystal, elongated and deep blue in color. It REALLY displays with pizzazz, though it does have a pretty severe serrated contact zone on the right side, and admittedly also some damage to the back side of the left edge. But...it displays like a $1000-plus azurite crystal, its a huge crystal for a Mexican locality, and theprice reflects the technical defects. I still think its significant as a flashy specimen for the find, just at a reduced price point (if fully intact...i shudder to think the value).
