RunnersDad Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 Very cool Akro! Where did you pick that up at? I would say that is definitely hard to find as I have never seen another example like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moremarbles4me Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 I may be mistaken but were'nt some of the marbles in the original post dug up during the last dig at Akro? Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluerock Posted February 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 This one i found in the wild. it was with a bunch of other older marbles. Fire its not anything like the ones you posted. its a corkscrew. here is another pic. it is on a grey white translucent base and there is a little clear.

RunnersDad Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 I like it even more now that I have seen the 2nd pic. Could be a dug example from day's gone by, but definitely quite umcommon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akro gatherer Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 i would think that it glows under a black light. also i have not seen anything like it but then again........somethings get dug up that are very different. i know you said from the wild but........if Stephanie cant track it down with a pic or something or an ad from 1930 with it in it (meant as a compliment) and no one else has seen one or more than a few...............i would say it was dug.

moremarbles4me Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 Regardless of where it came from it's a really nice example and I would say very hard to find. Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akro gatherer Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 i did not mean to come off like i was disagreeing with you, bluerock. i was just offering an oppinion. sorry if i did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluerock Posted February 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 i don`t think it is a dug marble. i have had this in my collection for about 10 yrs. and i found it here in northern mn. and it wasn`t from anyone that collects marbles. it is not florescent though i wish it was. i showed it to a guy from wisc. that collects and he said it was a popeye. but i don`t think it is. no wispy white. the white base is more like moss agate or clowdy matrix. here`s one more pic.
