Not quite the glass shine that agates usually have so may have to go back into polish for a bit... Was told that this was Indian Black Skin agate but not sure. The quartz on the side frosted up pretty good but the face turned out okay Misc. filler that was included in the tumbler: Happy New Year everyone!! Dan

Nice batch. The yellow one in the last pic looks like it has a gig grin.
