Hi Ric. Here's the marble this 3/4 tricolor with oxblood. pretty rare to see these orange and yellow which are usually in the Prize Name category, with oxblood, but there are rows of these orange, yellow and a hint of black in #2 50ct Akro boxes labeled tricolor. This marble fits that description except it has a lot of oxblood. So... Tricolor Special 3/4

What size is this? I am iso a 3/4 white spiral onyx (it looks white from here?). I have all the other colors in that size, but not 3/4.

Very busy on formatting The Kro newsletter for multiple email vendors and mobile/desktop/tablet versions. Once I get that completed hopefully today I'll be spending 100% of my time on processing pictures and writing/orgaizing all the research from decades. It's been 3 years on this. wow, time flies. I will certainly try to fulfill your request. People should sign up for The Kro... first email newsletter coming out soon. https://akroagatemarbles.com/the-store/

Some of these types have oxblood
-
The one inch or approximate types are not the same opal base as these types specifically named 'sky blue' oxblood by collectors. It is essentially an opal onyx oxblood or however you want to say it. Most of this type have more white and blue coverage over the opal base and the oxblood is on the surface. ... and most were fractured and not packaged for wholesale. I have three versions and this is the only I have seen with intenal oxblood. Here's another view .. I don't like this picture which is why I didn't post it.

I didn't say anything about why or why not Akro used carbon. I simply stated the grooves in the carbon cups were not what formed a corkscrew. this is not my opinion. This is fact straight patent documents explaining the machine parts in detail from the inventor who was not Akro or an employee of Akro. The grooves were carved randomly in cups yes... just to aid in keeping the molten flow from splashing right out. All this happened in less than a second. All I stated was... the grooves did not cause a gob to form a spiral pattern. That is fact. I explaing how the carbon cups were attched to the cam arm. I even showed patent pictures in a post above. 6 set screws held a plate the secured the cup via a groove around its base to the cam arm. This is clearly pictured and described in a patent image I posted above. There really is zero speculation on it. The patent also states... cups may or may not have grooves. So I'm inputting what I have researched for a long time. I won't bother sharing those things again. By the way, I'm leaving Rogers after 3 days here again and I mentioned to him people don't believe the oxblood spirals and ribbons like the two I posted here are Akro and he laughed. They're all dug and very few exist making them pretty rare. They're real, they're Akro. I don't post fake stuff. I do expose fake stuff though.. fake Akro stuff. I don't speculate. Some things can not be proved, but what can be should certainly be accepted and not discarded and guessed at.
