This was probably one of the most interesting finds of the summer. I thought I found a potato on the beach. It hit it with some sandpaper when I got home and it turned out to be a favosite. I plan on polishing it when I get a chance.   |

Nice find, looking forward to seeing it after you polish it.

That's also sometimes called Charlevoix stone. I guess the residents of Charlevoix were jealous of Petoskey, so they named their own rock.

Finally had a few minutes to finish it up. It took a decent polish.   |

Aw shucks, your potato turned out to be way better than my potato. Just an Idaho spud here. Jim  |
