Well, after feasting my eyes started watering... so BRIGHT!! What on earth is the badge-shaped one with the 'contour lines' (as I shall call them), 3rd/4th up from the bottom?

The one which you are asking about (3rd&4th from the boottom) I believe was Botswana agate. What is special about that one is that it displays what is called paralax. That is an optical illusion which gives the perception of depth. When you hold this cab in your hand and look at it it looks as if you are looking into a deep hole. The pictures don't show that as well as looking at it in person. Stu
