That piece with the blue agate should be very pretty cut. Nice stones.

Cool stuff Ted! Did you find this yourself? The blue agate and the banded one are really cool! Also, is the fossil coral solid on the inside? I was curious if it was workable material or more of a specimen. Really cool nonetheless

Yeah , found them friday . I have`nt cut any of those three . Good question on the coral , which is the petoskey , It appears to be quartz replaced , or aggatized and hopefully will be or have some blue color . I will get those cut in the near . Ted

Cool stuff Ted. My in-laws have a few pieces of coral like that, so I'm very interested to see what you find inside.

4.9 pound piece . It`s pretty nice . Not as much blue as I thought it may have . But harder than most petoskeys , Ted

That's pretty neat coral Ted regardless of color. Thanks for showing us! I'll have to see if I can get a chunk the in-laws have to cut.

Pretty cool, Ted! I like the pudding with that one red spot on it. The red one is nice as well as the agate. That looks like a really neat place to hunt for them too!
