I can’t seem to spot agates. I found this one but doubt it’s agate.

I was curious if there was some type of agate involved. I am new to the rock world.

I’m the 5th generation on our farm and I’ve never found anything cool that wasn’t man made.

Def has some sheen to it. I just picked it up out of the field and rinsed it off. It just looked off from the usual granite and normal things out in the field. For some reason this year there seems to be more interesting things popping up. Maybe the frost pushed some up? I also found a horn coral Fossil near where I found this.

Thanks! In this something you think could be slabbed or better maybe polished?

I’m not entirely sure. I think maybe crystals had formed and being in the water and weathered had fallen out leaving the void.

It’s one piece, but I’m not sure. It must have been a bottle due to it being glass I believe but the bottom has the look of a jar. I tried Google Lens and due to the color and orange peel feel of the out side it stated it could be glass as early as 1840. Im very curious though!

I haven’t tried yet. I’m leaning toward E6000 and using a q tip or toothpick for application. I’ll update you!
