Nice variety there and great color and patterns.You have some nice rocks in your area and it looks like you're putting that new tumbler to good use.

Cool stuff! Looks like you left them to look a little rustic and it is fitting with some of these! I like that tigers eye looking one and the carnelian looking stuff!

Hi John, the stone in question looks like golden Tigers eye at a quick glance, however i think it is most likely an Agate of some sort.
What State did you find them?

Well that narrows it down a bit to the following 10 States, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi, Louisiana, covering approxmately 2,320 miles. My guess is Kentucky: Fortification Agate with red, black and yellow banding, it is the State stone of Kentucky, also known as Kentucky Agate! USA State Gems, Gemstones, Minerals, Rocks and StonesUnless of course you found it further up river than the State of Kentucky! |
