Okay maybe not peanuts but $2. Here is the whole lot half wet/half dry (depending if your glass is half empty or half full: agate, OJ, obsidian, green moss agate, lace of some sort - a colorful orangy agate The club has little baggies of litle slabs & rough for $0.25 and up per piece - did I pay too much for this lot?  Is this labradorite? the back is quite lumpy - it has that shimmer/flash to it even the back has it once it's wet  Thanks for looking |

You won't find a better deal for a toonie!
I'm pretty sure that second piece is moonstone. Moonstone is a clear/white feldspar rock with a labradorite-like flash.

There was snowflake obsidian as well in another bag and I wanted to mix & match but I decided not to push my luck! maybe next time I'll see what I can find in another bag
RS Moonstone sounds right! wanted to make sure it wasn't labradorite as I think that's toxic isn't it?

looks like spectralite to me,, the crazing pattern,, i have a lot of 1/2 lb of rainbow moonstone ive been working/ playing with, 2 bucks sound like a great deal for slabs (its damn expensive to cut rock)

Looks like this cabbing club you joined is paying you back in rocks (even if you are paying for them).

Looks like you got some pretty stuff for a good price. I need to find me a club like that around here.

Tweety, you got some great stuff for $2.00. At the show I was at last summer, most of the stuff was $2-$5 for just one slab. I think it's a great deal.

I would say you stole it. Kind of like the steals that I have been getting from Ebersole's.
