All this stuff is for sale.
Doug,
Cool stuff, I’m looking for “Thunder eggs” for my grandkids. You got any I’ll buy some from you. And uhhh, as you warned a guy about his finds, our state is run by some idiots and I’d be careful showing off all those Indian artifacts? Just a warning, a buddy of mine was collecting pottery shards on public land and got busted and a huge fine $$ from the state and had to turn it all over to the state? Any who, nice collection.

The blm has already been to my house and left pissed they are all legal from old collections. I have archaeologist's that contract with the feds borrowing stuff to use in their work. If someone buys a pot they will get a release with all the finders and my info on it. points and shards are legal if found on private land, points are legal to surface hunt on blm land so far. I got some of this stuff in trade from New Mexico Museums. Baker Ranch Luna County New Mexico thunder eggs cut and polished $30 to $75. the pink chalcedony flat is $150. I have more some where from other local mines about the same prices if you want me to get you photos.

Then your “Good to Go!”

Looking for raw uncut Thunder Eggs (TE), thanks! Right now I’m buy on Ebay so my grandkids can get a sampling from all over the country and we cut them ourselves. I’ve found a Few (TE) here in New Mexico but all white quartz inside? The ones from other states have color. OUT

I am going to say New Mexico and Chihuahua have the best agates. There are agate mines all over Luna County and the line continues into Chihuahua a couple hundred miles.
