A 4x2.5x2.5 cm crystal of amethystine Quartz which terminates with the very rare basal pinacoid or "C-face" (a flat crystal face that truncates the pyrimid faces) from Four Peaks, Maricopa Co., Arizona. This is a reference specimen for a very rare crystallography. Now in the collection of Dr. Ferdinando Giovine.
