m!b$ Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 And how can you tell, other than its Mint condition, which is unusual for those? http://www.ebay.com/itm/41-64-Vintage-M-F-Christensen-Brick-Marble-MINT-Condition-Beautiful-/281241407356?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT&nma=true&si=SemRriRh72Z3hUBAe4YiAbDg8qc%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotcomdz Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 When I looked at your link yes I would think that is an older brick. Very far from mint though. Maybe good to mint - at best... just sayin...lots of beat up on that mib as far as BIG chips go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wediscount2 Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 New Marble, no doubt about it whatsoever! Ronnie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1DanS Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 I'd say polished. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarbleDawg86 Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 It looks new but I'm gonna go with its a polished oldie... I've bought from that seller before and most of his mibs are near mint and legit vintage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lstmmrbls Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Polished vintage IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTAndrea Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 I was tempted by that one but something in my brain said not to bid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage-28 Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Not 100 percent sure, but I've seen some of these weird bricks before and I think they old (wouldnt bet lunch on it, though), but maybe they were juat a weird batch. I also believe they are Akro and not MFC. They are usually in the 5/8's range, with 11/16 being the biggest I've seen. The guy that has the USA Display website, who also sells Mibs, has quite a few of these (if I had any credence before, I probably just lost it after mentioning that guy, lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lstmmrbls Posted January 18, 2014 Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 I would bet money and give odds that that marble has been polished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage-28 Posted January 18, 2014 Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 I'd bet you a dollar, just to see it in hand. I don't suppose anyone knows who won it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'llhavethat1 Posted January 18, 2014 Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 I'd agree with polished. To me it doesn't even look close to a 'Brian Graham' style (and of course, haven't seen them all) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lstmmrbls Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 Definitely not one of Brians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnome Punter Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Polished vintage IMO Galen is Dead on I had 2 bricks polished for ID purposes, had Leroy do it, and that gaping white was the 1st thing I noticed on mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
