Jayms yours look exactly like mine did, I was never able to get someone to say that they could 100% id mine cause the "scales" were not very well visible like yours.
And some I do not see any scales but they could be under grounds as I was having that issue to.
This is why I didn't eat them cause I just rather live than die over a trip that has bad ratings lol

Yeah, they don't seem to have the rings they should. Who knows though, I'll dig up one or two and check.

u may need to excavate around them a bit to expose any remaining scales, if they exist at all...

I'm curious, since these specimens appear to lack the rings of scales, what's the next most likely ID of this mushroom?

those are concentric rings of scale like structures, those are Amanita muscaria and it's your call. most people don't like them enough to try them a second time and some people have a thing for them. i highly recomend drying them and then finishing with heat.

Attn PWN hunters: If you should come across a bluing Psilocybe matching P. pellicolusa please smell it. If you detect a scent reminiscent of Anethole (anise) please preserve a specimen or two for study and please PM me.

Like monkeyheaven, I too am wondering, what would they be if they weren't? I'm still kinda hazy about trying them without being 200% sure.
A guy from the UK on another forum posted a way to cook them.
Quote:
If you're going to take Fly Agarics you need to prepare them properly first, also dosages vary, maybe start with 10g. You dont want to eat them fresh, put the caps and stems in some salt water for a little while, this will flush out any little critters hiding away. Then put them into the oven on a baking tray, gas mark 3-4 for 20-25 mins, baste any of the juices that leak out back onto the mushrooms.
The heat converts the ibotenic acid into muscimol (the psychotropic substance that makes you trip) which is what your after.
