Most Beautiful Find

[MeteroriteMatt]

My wife found this pretty thing on the Oregon coast on a foggy, rainy, cold afternoon. We were competing for the biggest agate and i had just found a beautiful piece and she was envious until she found this monster. We have never found any this size before. Weighs about 6 - 8 lbs.

What a great looking specimen. That will look very nice on a shelf in your home or however you display it.

Yachats I know there are agates there, but all I've seen are very small.

Nice,
I was always looking for a perfect "eye" agate, got some that are near to perfect circles.

Great looking find. I have never seen one that large before.

Pretty cool,, what is something that big worth?
Congrats to the wife.

we found it on a secluded, very rocky part of the southern coast. Its just about as big as anything Ive seen. We have found other ones about half as large as that a dozen times or so but this one is just crazy. Hard to figure a value on it, pretty curious though.

 

[unclemac]

value isn't really much, maybe 10, 15 bucks for one half that size...but to me it is priceless.

Here are a few of the other ones that we have found. Same beach.
