Glassy, lustrous Quartz scepter from the Mondo Mine. This mine is well known for water-clear, colorless Quartz and for Sphene crystals, but it also produces scepters. This one happens to be the best one I've seen. It has a mixture of smokey and Amethyst coloration and a number of red Hematite inclusions. It's a uniform shape, complete all around with one chip on the the termination, otherwise pristine.
