A gorgeous, gemmy amethyst scepter crystal on a stalk of milky quartz from Hopkinton, Rhode Island. The amethyst is very glassy. The super trivial termination and edge wear is barely noticeable and is certainly not detracting, as you can see. Rhode Island amethyst scepters of this quality are always in demand and specimens are rare. Ex. George Elling Collection.
