Superb Ettringite thumbnail, as fine quality as I've seen. It has top lemon yellow color (not pale yellow and chalky as are some of the large ones, and not brownish and 'woody' as some get) and it is undamaged. It is double-terminated with Calcites at one end providing accent. A highly choice Ettringite. Ex. Carl Acosta Collection.
