Yellow Amanita with White Dots.

Hello. Upon a regular check around the property for liberty caps, I descovered a good number of these guys.
Standard Aminata pattern... this one was yellow with the white dots, impressive 'egg like' head, stury white stems, didn't disturb it's gills.
Not soley interested in it's pychotropic properties, just interested in if it's deadly poison or of any worth.
Thanks.

I mean I didn't haul it out of the ground to view it's gills. I am assuming someone can make an estimated guess at what it is from the information.
If you can't, that's alright too..

We need to see the base of the stem to be sure of species. There are a shitload of yellowish Amanita species, some of them deadly. If you could post a photo of one or use a scanner it would help a lot.
Happy mushrooming!

Looks a lot like this.
Hmm, I will try to scan a pic later.
Hold on until then, I will bump it with a pic.
Good day

Spiritus: could you go back sometime in the near future, look at it closely and give some full details. of special import when identifying amanitas are the characteristics and structure of the stipe base, features of the veil and bruising reactions; among others.
dentifications of amanitas is dubious at best and usualy beyond the scope of my knowledge but there are members here who may give it a go.
