Fluorite (with "phantoms") (ex Rich Kosnar Collection)

Item Description

A great display specimen from one of the most storied and well known districts in Colorado. The pegmatites near the Lake George area of Colorado have produced what most collectors and dealers consider to be the finest Amazonite specimens from the standpoint of superb color, top quality, wonderful display specimens and excellent associations. This particular specimen, has no Amazonite, but it does feature a pair of sharp, gemmy purple color "tumbling dice" cubes of Fluorite with disticnt internal golden "phantoms" that clearly can be seen when the specimen is backlit. Keep in mind that this specimen was collected over nearly years ago (September of 1980) when Richard Kosnar found some of the finest color Amazonite from Colorado extant. Don't miss out on this great Colorado "classic".
