Item Description
Top-tier, bright rich yellow, glassy gem fluorite cubes, to 1.2 cm, cover this striking, excellent and rich mounded specimen from this historic district. Scattered brassy chalcopyrite sphenoids and a couple of patches of barite blades are fine accessories to this exceptionally colorful fluorite. Purple fluorescence. From an East Coast collection and comes with an old, faded and water-stained incorrect label. Prussia was dissolved after World War I and Altenberg in Saxony did not produce this style and color of fluorite. Classic and superb old combination fluorite from Annaberg.
