It is a 3 pt. your the first to notice. Just posted some pictures of it in the gallery. :smile:
Theres a quick and mostly boring story behind this agate. My family and I were combing a Oregon beach looking for agates(the locals told us it was the thing to do:wink when my youngest boy who was about 7 found one. He said dad I found a agate with a 8 ball on it and I said to him
uh huh I bet you did son and we continued the search after about an hour he told me again and I said sure you did Cody. He kept the rock in his pocket and about a week later we were in Pike place market in Seattle and he asked me if I wanted it, so I said let me have a look at your 8 ball rock. Much to my amazement this is what I saw. It has been my good luck charm ever since. This rock has not been doctored up in anyway this is exactly how mother nature made it. Just wierd that a family of pool players found it.:happydance:
Some player cards found in Oregon.
That's what I'd like to have.... player cards...

I don't own any of this stuff, but I do have the Behind the 8-ball game (never played it though, too valuable)
I haven’t lurked for a while, but pleased when I saw this thread. I have collected for some time. Here are some medallions, fobs, tie clips...

That is way cool. I'm thinking you propped it next to the rail to take the picture. So it's very small. If you're willing take another shot of it with a dime next to it. I'd bid on it if it was on ebay.
edit: BTW, I like the story

Very nice collection. Any chance you want to sell the 8-ball sunglasses, or does any body know where to get a pair....Thanks Ron

I have no interest in this sale, I'm just pointing you to it since you mentioned your interest in the cards.
