Fabulous Monazite crystal with good size, good quality, and perfect crystal formation and definition. This specimen was purchased on May 24, 1986, for 2,600 pesetas (good money for the time) at the Hotel Meliá Mineral Fair in Lisbon. It comes from the old Carlos Prieto Paramio collection, which retains its original handwritten label and which we will send to the buyer with the mineral.
