It has many different looks all around it. Has very solid agate areas and very soft areas too. The black ring was soft and then has a solid agate center. I got that one and the amethyst laker from an estate sale and both were in a bag labeled "special Lake Superior agates". I will have a bunch more from that lot coming in the next few weeks. Chuck

Nice batch! Did you tumble the ob in with everything else? The obsidian ran in the mixed rock load but I loaded it with about 50 percent ceramic so the obsidian was not getting banged up at all. Chuck
