by OregonAgates ½ pound Agate found October 5, 2010
I guess the season is going to start earlier than we thought it would. Florida Beachcomber finds 8¼ pound Agate!
We are all anxiously waiting to see what it will look like polished. Check back later this fall to see it polished. Agate Treasures
The white agate below weighed in at 1¼ pounds, the carnelian/sard agate with the crystalline center weighed 1 pound. Nice finds! What is this fossil?
Danny also found some nice agates!
