[Rockhounds] 83.8lbs Lucas Creek WA Agate Find

[Flint Smith]

That's an impressive one.

But, not to be mean, it's not that pretty, at least on my monitor.

You have to decide if polishing it will really make it enough better to bother.

If you decide to work it, consider sending it to someone to have them cut a sphere out of it

I recently pulled out a monster agate from Lucas Creek WA.. 

I'd like some suggestions as to what the group thinks is the best approch for a stone of such size. i've given it a good acid bath and cleaned it up but im not sure if cutting it is such a good idea.. i've never seen or heard of an agate this large from the area.. Any suggestions ..

Thanks in advance for your suggestions...
