3475  FLUORITE  $100 Dalnegorsk Far East Russia 4 x 3 x 1.5 cm   3474-545-7jkjlnr

Here is a specimen of water clear cubic Fluorite with a couple of corners with small octahedral modifications.   Only damage is the lower left corner of the largest cube has a 5 to 10 MM concoidal chip only noticed with a loop and the light at the correct right angle.  Bottom most cube where the specimen ends has some damage contact with additional Fluorite.   Other wise pristine.

Left photo shows contact at bottom cube contact as specimen ends.  Right photo shows small 7MM concoidal chip (dark angled spot).

Center photo shows what looks to be damage but the cube is good and the damage like area is showing through and is near or at the matrix that the cube is sitting on.  Probably an interal fracture
