you people need to learn what a "herkimer diamond" is .. they are simply quartz crystals many with unusually high clarity for quartz and found in .. yep you guessed it Herkimer , New York
@whatdafuk3 It is quartz . LOL. Herkimer Diamonds used to be used as a cheaper substitute for real diamonds. on the mohs hardness scale a diamond is a 10 while quarts is 7 and glass is 5. So quartz like these are pretty much like the first CZ only they are not made in a lab.
@SpidermanRun You know, i kinda like this crystal. And I suspect I know more about collecting than the average bear. I dont claim it is worth a lot, as far as monetary value goes. I have spent a lot of money on crystals and I have sold some for huge amounts of money, so I know a bit about this. But thanks for your nice comment just the same.

most of these I put on ebay and start the bidding at 99 cents. So some can be had very cheap but sometimes the bidding goes very high . You can find me on ebay , user id : jxr_rox
