    I was told they were some kind of fossil egg ! Maybe a Mineral But who knows not me Is there anyone that has seen anything like these before When the light shines through them they appear to glow In one of them there is like a red vane on the top I don't know if you can see them in the photos but I can use your help in identifying them Thanks for looking

      Years ago a friend of ours went out west,I think Arizona,and she brought us back some geodes.She said they called them thunder eggs because when it rained the sand would be washed away and expose them.They looked very similar to this only when cut open they had formed crystal points in them.Don't know if that helps but this is very cool !

      No that's Not what they are I have some of those I took them to some one who has seem to no their stuff but always looking for that second opinion

      I'm holding a regular flashlight on it to show the color that come through in the dark when I do this in the light it shines yellow the only way for me to explain the feel of it is to compare it to jade it has that silky wax fill that is the white in side that im talking about it does not have a stone fill to it

      I see your point I looked but if I was to take it back to the gemologist / Jewelry store owner and jewelry maker He will tell me thats not what it is he has travel to other countries and picked up different things along the way so its hart to go with that Thats why I want others to see it and get other opinions Thank you Keep'em coming
