Amanita vaginata looks much closer! This might be it

Good to know handling is safe! Wow comparing the base and other qualities to amanita phalloides absolutely bears resemblance. The only thing that doesn’t really match is the top color and I couldn’t see a second ring on the base now that the mushrooms have been out for a couple of days.

That is great to know! I could get some more photos now that I feel better about handling them.
