An unusual Bisbee calcite, a floater cluster featuring intergrown flat, disc-like hexagonal crystals coated with an iron mineral to give it a pretty pattern of darker edges against orangey faces. Moderately contacted on the two ends, and some bits of wear, but overall has a fine display face. 5.3 x 3.6 x 2.7 cm
