I found this buried in a hillside in S.W. Iowa while looking for arrowheads. Didn't believe it when I saw it, but it happened. Enjoy!

Hopefully some others here can chime in. I personally think this is an exceptional find! I actually voted banner for this one. Not only is this quite a valuable find, but it's just an amazing quality specimen all around. I hope some of the other Rocks/Gems crowd can agree with me on this. I'm patiently waiting to see some exceptional mineral specimens, like this one; make it to the banner!
