An Akro for this "Sundays Best" I'm calling it a Lemonade ox but instead of the standard greenish hue when hit w/ a blacklight this one glows more yellowy orange. The base glass is a little off also. I wasn't even aware it was UV reactive till I hit a group w/ the light & it popped. Size is .753" Here it is pictured beside a smaller 5/8ths Lemonade ox for a base glass color comparison.

Ah, found it, a relatively long read but it gives the complete story from beginning to end !! Leftover drain field media (clay balls) painted etc... & made to look like marbles, they're are still a lot of them around.

Yes, sounds just like the "gas shortage" we had in the 70's (not)

I heard they had to reset all the gas pumps from a max of $9.99 to an unbelievable $99.99, might just be hearsay ?? I'll ask the station owner across the street and see if I can't find out what's up ?? I am Blessed & grateful to have the grocery store within a block 🙏 my truck only gets 10 mi. to the gallon, 460 FORD gas pig

Oh boy .... endless but I do have a couple old standbys I use. And your old standby is also an excellent choice, I try to shy away from price guides anymore, the market is so volatile. I have many, many of Stanley Blocks old hardback books, they are truly the best all arounds I have ever found. I used to call Stan all the time years ago w/ marble related questions, he loved it, always willing to share, I'm not so sure his other half shared the sentiment.

Akro ?? Peltier Cerise ? Other ? Just want your perspective on it, I had this one I.D. long ago (23/32nds) I posted these before also, opinion was never given for the larger one though I consider it CAC. The smaller is a double seam CA. Any opinions on the larger of the two would be appreciated.
