I find agate pretty often at the beach, and I brought a bunch of petrified wood back from SE Alaska. Rock collecting has been a family hobby for many years, my grandmother and aunt both collected rocks from the beach and I inherited those, and I'll be passing them on to my son who started collecting driveway rocks when he was 3 or 4.

My collecting started when I was little, too. My grandmother always brought a rock back from wherever she went. I bring back 100s!
I collect sea shells, too, but I'm on the wrong side of the state to find the really nice ones. I've had better luck with fossilized shark's teeth - lemon, bull, dusky, mako, megaladon, tiger and snaggletooth (that I can recall).
I steal rocks from state and national parks... I always worry that I'm gonna get caught. People think I'm nuts, but I'm like... free souvenir!
( - Y - ) These ones are not real, just FYI.
