metalshelf Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 Hi: Is this an Akro Agate or Christensen Agate Yellow Slag ? It fluoresces green under a UV light. Bob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 Gotta love that glow. I'm not a slag person. I suspect that more views might be helpful. Showing seams or tails or whatnot. But maybe someone can tell without more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sclsu Posted November 7, 2015 Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 Is there a seam? At first glance I would think akro however Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lstmmrbls Posted November 7, 2015 Report Share Posted November 7, 2015 It is not CAC yellow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'llhavethat1 Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 It is not CAC yellow. Does this mean CAC didn't make a yellow like this, or they didn't make a yellow that glowed like this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lstmmrbls Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 I do not think CAC or MFC made Vaseline glass marbles. CAC did make true yellow slags that do not glow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1DanS Posted November 9, 2015 Report Share Posted November 9, 2015 going with Akro on this one. CAC yellow: thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ann Posted November 10, 2015 Report Share Posted November 10, 2015 I vote Akro too. Maybe handgathered? Ummm . . . I hate to disagree with Galen -- really -- but I might argue that CAC did have Vaseline slags. Pretty sure I have a couple. I also have one of the transparent vivid yellow ones that aren't fluorescent. And it's definitely a yellow nobody else had. But for form's sake I will double check my CAC slags tonight, just to make sure. They could be just fluorescent, without being Vaseline . . . And he's right about MFC. They didn't have Vaseline glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lstmmrbls Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 The "electric" yellow CAC slags I have are not flourescent (The white does get bright) but Ann is correct as I found several 2 seam CAC slags that are a light greenish Vaseline glass that glows very nicely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ann Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Oh heck, you mean we can't argue about it? Shucks. Turns out I only have one Vaseline slag, a two-seamed one like Galen described. The other one I thought I was remembering is not Vaseline, but a light, bright lime green that glows like heck. I only have one of the non-glowing "electric" yellow slags, but I did turn up a darker-but-still-yellow one where the white, not the base glass, glows pale orange. That was a surprise.
