FJD UTAH 30. Big Thompson Canyon Henry Mountain wood. Jurassic; Morrison formation. Utah fossil wood hunters would call this a full round, although it is in reality just a portion of a larger tree. It’s a nice example with an interesting exterior with much red agate. The face includes tiny red agate inclusions. Specimen round, cut and polished on one end, otherwise as found. No glue or filler. 5 by 3.5 cm mirror-polished face; 12 cm long; one pound and three ounces.  $115

the cuts are not parallel

I can’t explain it, but it’s colorful and interesting. Rugged exterior is deeply patinated. No glue or filler. 7 by 4.5 cm mirror-polished faces; up to 8 cm thick; one pound. $85
