hdesousa Posted February 13, 2022 Report Share Posted February 13, 2022 This is my oldest marble tournament medal. 1922 (sticker on back is my inventory 'number') Didn't the National marble championships begin in 1922? Shouldn't we be celebrating a centennial of sorts? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This color will also display feathering in the base glass where there is no white. It is a very cool marble to collect and look at. I love this type--great marble Chad!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted February 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2022 One more for this Sunday. A .761" Akro Silver oxblood. Shown in the first pic on the right sitting next to it's 5/8ths counterpart. The flipside, this one taken indoors. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted February 13, 2022 Report Share Posted February 13, 2022 I'm going to go in a little different direction for my Sunday best today. A reverse Jasper, just over 3/4" . . . I really like this marble - not too easy to find. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
