Hello everyone, I think I might have a green Akro Ace, but wanted to get some further opinions on it.
I tried to do some research in the past topics, and it seems this is quite a debated topic, and I apologize before hand if I cause any uproar, but I am very curious. I found the historical Akro advertisments someone posted with the basic colors of Aces, but this is the first green one I've come across. 5/8"

Thanks

Looks more like a moss agate to me at the moment.

Can you see any fire inside when you hold it to a light?

[disco005]

Just the tiniest tiniest bit along one side of the green, but then i might just be staring at it too hard lol

Moss Agate it is!

Thank you

It doesn't have to have a lot to be an Ace. if it has any fire at all. it is an ace. the base glass wasn't suppose to be all opalescent, although some turned out that way. it was meant to have some. i know Steph has the original catalog description we posted awhile back somewhere... if not I can repost. :-).

I don't have a green one. I have 1 red, several yellow, and a few orange. Is there also a blue one?

[sissydear]

by the way, the yellow one shown with the orange one is not an ace.

hI marie, if it's 1/2" it's either dug, a mistake, experimental or polished. Akro did not make a production peewee. Don't know if it would be worth more tho. :-)

Wow! Those are beautiful, thank you for posting pics Edna, it looks like Yellow is the least difficult to find?

and Thank you zaboo, I see what differentiates an Ace now
always appreciate everyone's input

[bigtee0]

by the looks of Edna's mine is not an ace. oh well, such is life in the big city.

Hi Dani and Ernie, you on fb? need to talk to you.....
