Awesome score. The Guadalupe takes the cake! Those are some serious poppies. It's amazing you found that all the way in AZ. I live about 2 1/2 hours from where it comes from and I almost never see any at shows of sales. Incredibly hard to find that nice.

Sweet Brian! Love that lace...and of course the poppy. You're first piece is an agatized Barite nodule found out near Moab. Have a great trip down South. Steve

A lot of jaw-droppers there. That poop is the best, I think. Adrian

Wow nice Guadalupe. That's a rare one. I think your poop is a fossilized barite nodule though. You can see the crystal spray design on the cut face. A lot of so called poop is actually the barite psuedomorphs that have been misidentifed and both are found in the same deposits in the same parts of the country....Mel
