Prehnite finger cast after AnhydriteAn attractive display specimen hosting several finger shaped casts after Anhydrite with great luster, color and gemminess. The fine crystallization of the Prehnite is noteworthy as well. The piece is sawed on the bottom but still displays nicely from several angles. A few minor scuffs keep it from being 100% perfect, but still good quality compared to many from the discovery. The Prospect Park Quarry is arguably the most famous mineral producing

This thumbnail sized group features a few sharp

There are a few minor nicks
