rxrodney Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 Just bought a small group of marbles from my favorite local antique dealer. In the group is the biggest Peltier National Line Rainbow that I have ever had my hands on. It is a cub scout measuring in at .8925 inches, or a little over 7/8". I'd say its only about a NM- with scattered fleas, but I like it because the size makes it really jump out as something unusual. I would post a picture but I haven't figured out how to get them from my iphone to here (it says the file is too big). I'm sure there are bigger ones out there, just wondering how big. Even if your biggest isn't as big as the largest one posted, please share, as I'm wondering if certain color combinations are more common in the larger sizes. Thanks, Rodney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockinron110 Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 I sold a Late Late NLR or very early Rainbo to Gino Biffany (sp?) It was at least 1 1/8th Gino said it was the biggest one he ever saw. Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 Nice snag, big ones are always good when you can find them. The biggest I've seen is about 1 1/8" too. ??????? A lesson on relativity, perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rxrodney Posted October 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 So...1" was probably the largest production size, with some variance up to 1 1/8" (or maybe 4.75" lol). That box is amazing! Thanks to all who have replied, and I'd love to hear anything else anyone has to add... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
