One of the perks available at the Beach Comber level of our IndieGoGo campaign is a set of beach stones collected by Kevin Gauthier of Korner Gem in Traverse City. Kevin literally wrote the book on beach combing Lake Huron, so we approached him to put together an authentic collection of stones that are different enough from each other to be used as pawns and scoring markers in the game.
He did a great job. The collection includes 17 pieces: 2 quartz pebbles, 2 basalt pebbles, 2 granite pebbles, 2 limestone pebbles, 2 dolomite pebbles and 2 each of green, blue and brown beach glass. And, we included a polished Petoskey Stone to use as a season marker.
Of course we know that you can't find Petoskey Stones on Mackinac Island, but it is Michigan's State Stone (pdf) after all.
