  3. X3, Looks Pelt to me, they get pretty wonky @ that size
  4. OP is not Pelt. IMO. Cannonballs are oversaturated av Zebras, they look like they've been rolled in aventurine. I believe the coverage has to be 85% or more to qualify, not positive ? These are very rare.

  6. Can't have lithotripsy "the thumper" (ultrasound) when they did it my first go round they thumped my kidneys so hard with the sound waves I almost bled to death so a big no no for me, nothing but surgery from there on out unfortunately, yeah the most intense pain I've ever felt for sure, going through surgery w/o pain meds is a living never ending nightmare, especially after waking up from the anesthetic. My digestive tract is screwed up so no opiates or ibuprofen, nothing but Tylenol, ugh !!
  7. It's us, (well them meaning the Feds) stats say we're @ least 40-50 years behind what the Federal Govt. is telling us (about anything) IMO

    Fraction of an inch are preferred i.e. 5/8ths, 3/4ths, 7/8ths etc. Decimals if you have to i.e. .58", .75" etc. a cheap set of calipers can be had for a couple bucks, I get mine @ Harbor Freight. If you don't know how to read them just google it, you'll catch on in no time You can place the marble beside a tape measure for a measurement & eyeball it if you have to, not as accurate as calipers but close enough.

    @ least $200.00 minimum depending on the exterior design, 15/16ths is XTRA humongous for an NLR. My biggest tree is only .78" show a pic if you can Brad, usually when they get to the larger sizes the NLR pattern becomes quite distorted. Here's mine, it held the NLR pattern pretty well for a large marble. I paid a bit over 200.00 for it but it is wet mint, only 2 small as made creases where the ribbons meet on either side.

    Looks like a game marble ?? Do you have a size ??
  14. Sorry to say but no, Latts are among the most common Antique German handmades there are, unless you have one in a rare base color or a rare Lattice color. Blue & or Green are the rarest I believe ??
