Item Description
Aquamarine crystals from ANY locality (about 10-12) in Grafton County are SUPER RARE and are essentially unavailable. This striking, large, doubly terminated, blue-green, foater aqua crystal is from the personal stash of one of the owners of the well-known Palermo # 2 Mine, Robert Whitmore. Much of the center portion of the textbook, hexagonal crystal is extremely gemmy, the rest is translucent and the entire crystal is highly lustrous and glassy. Some brusing is noted on the front edges. This is your chance to get an outstanding, large and very rarely available floater aquamarine crystal from this noted locale. Classic, historic material valued at $1000. Self collected by the mine owner. 322 grams.
