Item Description
Famous for its fluorescent minerals, this classic from Franklin is a bit more rare. Rich crusts of orange-red zincite crystals cover the matrix plate with unidentified sparkly black microcrystals. The zincite crystals have high luster with translucency and transparency. An excellent and rich old-time classic (most would be from the early 1900s or before).
