I didn't expect to find this Options

Last weekend I went out riding my atv and found some strange looking rocks when I got off my atv to take a walk. I really wasn't looking for anything, just trying to loosen up my back. As I was walking around these strange looking rocks caught my eye. So I picked one up and looked at it and it looked like a flint nodule. I decided to pick a couple of them up and took them home with me when we finished riding atv's. Since I didn't have a rock saw I took a hammer and broke one up to see what it looked like inside. Well, it looked funny so I pulled out my tile saw and cut one of the small pieces. I noticed right away it was a banded agate, yeah I just busted it up into 20 pieces...ooops. The next one I decided I din't want to destroy it so I took it to a rock shop and he cut it for me. Well I was surprised by this one two, I have a picture of it. These are the first agates I ever found, never even knew what they were, now I know what to look out for.

This is just a raw cut and is not polished.
