Was Block wrong when he I.D. this solid av opaque as a Master ?? I agree w/ ya Ron, but I'm still a bit confused ?? Maybe this is an exception to the rule ?? I looked for Master traits (cutlines) in the pix and it looks to me more like a swirl, thus the Champion I.D. on the one I posted.

The USB cord that charges it has paid for itself many times over vs. buying out of this world batterie$, one of my accidental "good decisions"

The OP is a transparent base Master brushed patch, Blocks marble is a solid opaque marble like the one I have. I agree, one of each should be sent to each of us for an extended analysis ... ... Don't get me wrong I'm still a bit confused on the opaque "Master - Champion" thing ?? It's a rare Mcally ...

Another Killer board David, you're makin me drool Never even seen em before !!

I know David likes Mica so here's the biggest and chunkiest amber mica I've ever had @ 31/32nds, from the 09 auction for this "Thüringen Thursday" Not even a flea on it only as made creases, looks like they were acquired while it was being twisted off the cane. Not single pontil, a melted pigtail on one end but still HTF in this condition.

Here's Blocks auction link w/ picture, there has been lots of controversy around these solid opaque av mibs for years. Mine was originally I.D. as Champion ?? I really don't know what it is?? That's why I had it up for I.D. Chad's OP is Master IMO, the base glass is transparent, therefor a transparent patch i.e. " Master Brushed Patch, IMO" LINK :: https://bid.marbleauctions.com/lots/view/4-72E4WC/marbles-master-marble-company-opaque-aventurine-1116-mint-99

That's an old pic, I've been diggin around and haven't come up w/ it yet !! Sistersville Alley was 2 out of three last time I posted it. I do remember the size was between 5/8ths and 11/16ths.

A repost for this "West Virginia Wednesday" time to smore. One of my favorite Alley's, came in a jar of mibs from a garage sale, I never even seen it until I emptied the jar @ home, a very pleasant surprise.

First day of rain tomorrow, things will be changin soon. Oop !! Almost forgot, I gotta stroll over and get a shot of those big orange flowers before the rain beats em to the ground.

x2, agree w/ Pelt i.e. Rainbo

SMM, Alley, other ... ?? I had this one I.D. long ago but still I question it !! I remember what it was sold to me as, what do you think ?? I have my own opinion and purchased it because I liked it. I posted it on both forums before with differing results

Some Pee-Wee's for this "Peltier Tuesday" two Wolverines a Mustard & Relish and a transparent Christmas tree.

Yessir, my favorite

First Wiger I've seen in some time, nice Any av ? I had one w/ and one w/o, the amount in the one w/ was very scarce.

Had this solid dark green av up for I.D. several times on both forums @ 5/8ths" the general consensus was Champion.
