cat's eye jack Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 that first 5/8" marble i posted looks like it is going to be a kokomo. the one next to it in pic is 3/4" and a little close to the other. it has a lot going on under the surface, almost like interior dings if there is such a thing. the surface is very smooth.anyway my i.d. is going be a 3/4" agate. thanks, jack (i hope it is not another kokomo lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feelnmarbleous Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 First mib is not a Kokomo, i tried telling you that last night in the other thread on here it's a Bogard, your correct on your other one other one though it is a Agate.

Steph Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 I am suspicious of any absolute answers on the first one. Especially since it looks like different colors in your different photos. What color is the base glass? Greenish? goldish? I'm confused too! (lol) Agreed on the agate. About Bogard, I think there might be some color limitations which aren't being taken into consideration. The classic Bogard pix which get posted have pretty bubbles for sure, and some wispy white, but do Bogards come close to that red in shade or transparency? bottom line for me: this might not be one which can be id-ed from pix. That's pretty much all I can say on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SplattmanSS Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 I am no EXPERT, so I won't say the first Mib IS a Kokomo, but it still has my vote as such...Your second marble does look like an Agate to me... S~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
