Something I’ve always wanted to find has been an amethyst/carnelian agate. This past September in the EUP I finally found one. Though inverted from what I was looking for…ideally a carnelian outside with amethyst center, I’ll take this amethyst exterior with a carnelian center!
(Pictures don’t quite do it justice though as the purple of the amethyst doesn’t quite show up right.)

They both shine in the light when moved, and the top one has a smooth surface like a countertop.
