The Cookie Monster

Yesterday, I posted about cutting rocks in half.  Later in the day, I ran across an article about an agate someone cut in two.  The agate, a gemstone produced by an ancient volcano, was found by a gemologist in the Rio Grande do Sul region of Brazil.

Once cut in two, a remarkable likeness of the Cookie Monster from “Sesame Street” emerged.

Collectors value the agate at $10,000.
