The Friend (1974): "Joseph also used an egg-shaped, brown rock for translating called a seer stone"

The official Church magazine for children, The Friend:

To help him with the translation, Joseph found with the gold plates ‘a curious instrument which the ancients called Urim and Thummim, which consisted of two transparent stones set in a rim of a bow fastened to a breastplate.’ Joseph also used an egg-shaped, brown rock for translating called a seer stone.[1]
