Item Description

Sharp muscovite specimens are RARE from this historic Maine pegmatite discovered in 1821. This textbook, hexagonal, thin "book" of plates has classic pearlescent luster. The cherry-red spots on one side add real pizzazz to this fine rarity from the Josef Vajdak Collection. A MUST for the locality or species collector.
