JVVmarbles Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 A huge 1-5/8" blue based 'submarine' with an almost horizontal twist and really great colors. One of the largest submarines I've ever seen. I'm looking forward to hearing your reactions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest browse4antiques Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 I have seen long hairlines like that when the marble has split in two and been apoxy glued back together. Not saying I believe its the case with your marble, but just curious. ... Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
