      Pretty agates but they were unfortunately not good examples of Coyamito agates.
      They're usually full of a rainbow of brightly colored bands... they're my favorite.
      Try to Google pics of them.

    The third one "heart-shaped" looks like Renaissance art, Sistine Chapel ceiling scene, and even a sense of a tapestry....it is just stunning.

    I enjoy your talking almost as much as I enjoy your results young man!! I use the diamond pads that attach to a drill. They're 4" in diameter so there's a large surface area to work in. For water, I just repeatedly dunk the rocks in water with a tad of soap added. I, too, get mirror finishes. Cost? $30.oo

    I’ve been meaning to ask if you have (or would consider making) a video about finding agates - specifically nodule identification. I did watch the one you made on the gravel road (which comes closest so far!) but it would be great to have something more in-depth.
