Closely resembling "poker chips", these doubly terminated, intergrown, tabular, lustrous and translucent crystals reach 3.5 cm across. A floater, complete all around with no damage or contact! The short prismatic faces are a bit darker in color than the basal terminations. Reminiscent of the tabular poker chip calcites from San Luis de Potosi, Mexico, but with color! These are very dramatic specimens from a 2016 find here.
