That would be my all time RTH favorite tumble Ken. Nailed the photos too. Looks like some old stock hard-to-find high grade Montana. Trying to type but had to rescroll the loot several times here. Now to the link. Well done.

Great tumbles and photos, excellent job high grading out any of the oh too common fractures. Fantastic shine and captures. Cheers

Now to the link. Well done. Was lucky enough to buy these at close out pricing. All gone now. Website said they were all collected in the 60's and 70's.

Sat on them for a while as I always heard they were better cut. Decided I bought them to tumble so took hammer and chisel to them. They broke pretty easily along existing fracture lines without out much additional fracturing.

That's a one in a hundred batch you have there. Best Montana agates I have seen in long time. Of course the cabber in me would love to see some cabs from those but they sure make great tumbles too.
