Title: 8lb agate node polished, is it worth the 20 I paid for it?
Post by: ducalion on February 22, 2018, 12:10:22 AM

I feel like it was worth more but I don't know all the types of agate offhand but I know I've seen this type before, lol but I do know that not knowing something while knowing to have known whats unkown leaves me with known unknowns, and i don't have to tell you about the known knowns, but the unknown knowns are what we need to know so that we don't live in a world where there may be unknown unknowns such as this bad attempt at a real speeh that was awesome oratory! Anyway if you could Id it that would be really cool I'm going to give it to my grandma who's probably not going to live through the year she was a lifelong rockhound/native American artifact collector so im hoping this is a really awesome find! Thanks

Of course its worth it as a gift to special person, and as something that caught your eye.  I hope the recipient enjoys the rock as much as you did the acquisition.
