I got some stuff to show ya'. This first one must be the biggest find. I'm a bit skeptical of this geode. Maybe agate inside, maybe just chalcedony, or botryoidal chalcedony. This isn't tradition Kentucky agate, but I like the agate formations and gemmy transparency. This is an agatized coral piece, deteriorated. What kind of coral? A solitary coral, not sure. Reminds me of horn coral. This appears to be a piece of a dark grey and red and clear agate, with the agate bands being tiny to the sight. Sorry about the quality of the photo. This specimen has both agate and quartz banding... it is decent size. It is too bad it had much damage, so it should be left as a specimen piece. Still purdy. Somewhat. Some solid gemmy black and cream speckled chert. This here I thought was just chert at first glance, but after bringing it home, I can tell right away there is druzy at the top of this stone. Cloudy blue and yellow colors. Does this classify as an agate, ya think? Ok, so I saved ya'll the best for last. I do spoil you guys by showing this. lol And just the right size, too. Peace, guys. Thanks for viewing.
