Herkimer Diamond Scepter.  Treasure Mountain Mine, Fall Hill, Little Falls, New York.  This is the finest competition-grade, thumbnail sized scepter from the Herkimer region that I have owned or seen in 40 years of collecting and mining these things.  I've written many articles and a book on this topic and am not taking this last statement lightly.  This specimen measures 2.7 x 2 x 1.6 and will fit nicely in a one inch cube.  It has zero damage of any kind, is exceptionally lustrous on all surfaces, has a very clear cap and very dark stem.  The piece is exceptional.  $1,400
