I'm back with the rest.Ruth,The Joseph's coat has a clear base and a core of color yes.You can see thru the marble between the marble colors,the core is not solid. Lower right anyone seeing Peltier? looks like it from here. Glad I went back!I'm Tard

Nice joseph's coat!

[orbboy]

I hope it is my eyes, or your pics. But I am just not seing a Blue Oxblood in your group? Any chance of more pics to be sure. Great score none the less.

P.S look in the green in that Josephs Coat for Averturine flecks.

Here are some better pics of the marble I think is a blue Oxblood.I'm not a cork expert but it looked like Ox till I put it on the light.To light for oxblood? Yes the Joseph's coat has aventurine in the green.Thanks,Ann...... Bo

Wow, nice group!!! It's great to see a marble called a Joseph's Coat, that really IS a Joseph's Coat....

And, a nice one, too!!!

The way the red glows, I'll agree that it doesn't seem like oxblood. Great marble no matter what.

[orbboy]

Yep the better pics did help. Sadly I don't see Oxblood either. It's that somewhat harder to find red that wants to be Ox. This combo is not overly hard to find generally. Yours however looks like a real nice version of one. It has way more blue than usual from what I have seen before. With a nice wrap. Bet all Corkheads would want that in their collection. I do P.M if you wanna trade it.

[marboman]

Thanks Orb,I'll keep looking.Sometimes I get carried away..LOL Bo

[orbboy]

No problem! It's always nice to know what one has. It is a real looker and also a great learning marble. Heck there was a time I thought the red in my current avitar was Oxblood.
