#2) First "need ID" - Imperial Jasper #4) Third "need ID" - Amazonite? #6) Fifth "need ID" - Lizard stone? #7) "not sure what this one is" - has a coprolite look to it #8) "need ID its a dark pic but the colors are kinda pastel" - silver lace onyx or some kind of onyx? Don't know about the rest of them... Jean PS - it would help if you number the pics!Thanks for the numbers, Tammy!

#1 spectrolite or labradorite. #2 Obsidian, possibly gold sheen #3 possibly Chapinite #4 appears to be Californite #7 does appear to be Coprolite.
Wish I could get my wife to buy Birthday presents like that for me.

Now, that is what I call a great birthday gift! By the look of the grain, I would say #4 is Amazonite. Is there any flash to it? Fran
