Description/Interesting Notes:
A gorgeous, old time example of amethyst with calcite from Guanajuato!!! This specimen consists of a large plate of lively, light
purple amethyst crystals in association with balls of lustrous, translucent calcite crystals!!! The
amethyst crystals have razor-sharp faces with glassy luster and unique, lively light purple color!!! The specimen is in magnificent condition
and displays gorgeously in person (save for two small dings the specimen is nearly pristine)!!! Upon close inspection one can see some slight purple phantoms in some of the crystals, as well as
some pyrite microcrystals scattered about the calcite crystals!!! One
can also see very dark purple areas of amethyst on the bottom of the specimen as well!!! Simply a magnificent, old time example of
amethyst from Mexico!!! Very showy in person!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!! STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED SATURDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 5-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY MARCH 22nd!!!
