description:
Colorless slightly translucent semi-lustrous lenticular crystals of calcite to 3.5 cm across over a 10.5 x 5.5 x 4.0 cm matrix. Micro-chipping is present in several areas, still I think in good condition. Quite nice for this old classic locality. Shows nicely on both sides. Shipping weight: 0.48 pounds.
