jeroen Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Hello, I want to share with you my newest marble. It is a 2-1/2 inch mica onionskin. The color combination a fantastic! The red dots seems to flow as to speak "in space" because of the dark background near the red dots Most amazing is the condition of this marble. I examined it with a loupe, but I could not detect any damage at all! Not the smallest scratch, subsurface sparkle, noting, nada. Perhaps this marble could be graded 10.0. I think it is very rare that an old 2-1/2 inch handmade marble has no damage at all. Well enjoy the photos. Jeroen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bumblebee Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Wow, this is how I picture marbles in heaven with perfect resurrected bodies. No flaws. Maybe jeroen is posting from a higher altitude? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spara50 Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Amazing, looks like the day it was made! Send that to the dealers and auctioneers that wonder what mint is supposed to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lstmmrbls Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 Not saying it happened here but there is a collector in your area that has done a lot of hand buffing on big handmades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you refer to Jeroen van Valkenburg, I can tell you that this marble comes from the USA Jeroen vV has never seen it before. It once was in the collection of Bud Braunlich Jeroen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
