I received a 17 pound box of agates from Vance as the high bidder of his auction. Most of it is best used for tumbling. I cut or face polished some of the larger nodules. forum.rocktumblinghobby.com/thread/102914/package-vanceI am offering a cigar box full of agates for $10 including priority mail shipping to someone willing to tumble and post pictures of the results. Anything that I can't use I find a home for and seeing the results of the tumble would be away to indicate the value of the nodules so I can offer them at a very reasonable price.

Just got them out of the rotary. They really could use more time or some grinding but I am shutting the rotaries down for the winter. I am going to throw them in the lot o.

Thanks Ashley for volunteering. Vance said there were differing opinions on whether they were Crowley Ridge or something else. I don't tumble, but I did examine the nodules and faced polished a few with my Genie. I don't much about agates but they looked like pictures of Crowley.
When they are finished and there is interest, I will offer rough nodules here.
