Description/Interesting Notes:
A rare and unusual example of agate that has replaced fossil snails from Colorado!!! This specimen consists of a quartz matrix that hosts
numerous pseudomorphs of agate after Jurassic-era snails (Valvata scabrida)!!! The agate has a wonderful multi-hued color that exhibits rich pink and
pinkish purple colors!!! Upon close inspection, one can even see striations on the snails' shells!!! The largest snail measures over 1.4cm!!! The
agate has a fantastic, almost glowing translucence that is quite striking in person!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! A unique and rare pseudomorph indeed!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!

WILL BE ADDED SATURDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 5-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY OCTOBER 21st!!!
