    Wishing you all the best for your recovery.

    Finding this hobby and forum also came to me at a very difficult time in my life, just when I needed it. The respect between users, passion displayed and the neverending beauty and mystery of these marbles means it is such a nice place to spend time.

    Very well said!

     

    All the best!

    I agree with Pelt Rainbo but I have a  story for marbles like these so just put up with my rambling please.
    A younger girl/boy was into shooting marbles, he/she kept them in an old tin coffee can in the chicken coop—then he/she found out about other things and there they sat for quite a few years until discovered by some nut that collected them.
    This one was probably on the bottom collecting a drip or two from the leaking roof, never to see chickens again. The chickens are gone but I bet that he/she wonders what ever happened to the marbles.
    Yep—I am a bit crazy—but fun as well, I hope.
    Marble—On!!
     

    Love it!

    It's pretty but it doesn't strike me as American. I'm a little envious of the foreign variety you find up there - we just don't see much of the older foreign stuff down here.

    When you say foreign, do you mean Asian? Or what other countries would qualify?

    Yes, another Type I Tiger Eye - backlight it to make sure you get to know the clear transparent base glass - look especially at the places where the patches and ribbons interface.

    Just did that.  It really jumps out.  Thanks for the tip!
