Misc polished pieces found in creek and fields in Iowa. I rarely go for the full, perfectly smooth polish. I like to maintain as much rock size/character as is reasonable.
The 3 pcs (above) on left were rocks picked off of a gravel road. They were not too special when found.
The other 8 are assorted jaspers.
7 top pcs are various brown jaspers/chert.
The bottom 2 are chalcedony, I believe.
A good hobby to fill in times when I can’t metal detect.
I forgot to show a size scale.
These will each fit easily in the palm of a hand; they range from 3/4” to around 2”
