Rock 294 ~ Vending Machine Gemstone ~ May 13 2016 ~ Upland CA

I saw the opportunity to buy a rock from a commercial vending machine at a pizza parlor today. How could I resist? For one quarter, you get a rock, a piece of paper describing the rock, and the little capsule it comes in. I put my quarter right on in. And this is what  came out. Now if I could just get the capsule open.... (gemstone looks like it measures approx 5/8")
