OKH-441     Fluorite     May’s Mine, Ft. Wayne, Indiana.  Ex. Nancy Collins collection.  This is a superior example from this prolific locality.  Current measurements are 3 x 2.9 x 2.3 cm overall.  I have evaluated it closely and it can safely be trimmed down to a competition size (1 inch) quite easily, with no problems at all.  The primary cube is slightly tabular measuring 1.9 x 1.7 x 1 cm and there is an aesthetically placed secondary cube that is .4 cm on edge.  Gemmy with only minor inclusions.  Clear down to the matrix and a light yellow color.  Zero damage.  A premium competition grade piece all the way…the best I have seen anywhere.  I can’t imagine anything better for a showy fluorite TN.  $450
