First one is a little too close, but looks like blue tube agate to me. And a fine one at that.

I'd say top one is cathedral agate. Pricey stuff. You got you a deal! Nice finds!.....Mel

Great yard sale find!! My wife got a 20# chunk fo rose quartz that someone used as a door stop for $1.00 last year. The year before my sister-in-law saw a box of rocks at a yard sale and offered them $2.00 for the whole box. They accepted and she brought them to me, knowing of my rock addiction. I looked it over and was thrilled, it was 17# of facet rough! I ended up with Impreial Topaz, smokey quartz, rose quartz, Montana sapphires, rutilated quartz and enough other material to keep me cutting for the rest of my life!!! Never pass up a yard sale until you check it out.

I found 2 arrowheads at the bottom of my garage sale find. One is grey chert the other is a deadman's point made from some kind of agate.

20 lb chunk of Rose quartz and montana sapphires wow! I hope I get that lucky. Im still trying to figure out what the small orange rocks are in the bottle that was in the box. I'v ruled out carnelian.
