Most people would state that the "black" Opals are the world's finest. However, in Australia in the late 1800's a long necked Plesiosaur was discovered that was opalized. Also a turtle was found opalized and other opalized fossils as well as opalized pinecones which have been found in Virgin Valley, Nevada. The Roebling Opal is considered one of the finest found in North America.
