disco005 Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 5/8" Yellow and White on a transparent Blue. I think they were made around the same time. I love them despite the damage.

teajayo Posted Monday at 11:58 AM Report Share Posted Monday at 11:58 AM Hi Ric. Here's the marble this 3/4 tricolor with oxblood. pretty rare to see these orange and yellow which are usually in the Prize Name category, with oxblood, but there are rows of these orange, yellow and a hint of black in #2 50ct Akro boxes labeled tricolor. This marble fits that description except it has a lot of oxblood. So... Tricolor Special 3/4 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Blue and Green in your first photo is a pretty hard to find color combination, green on blue, nice!!! I've really only ever seen one, and it's in my collection. I'm really happy to see yours and in much better shape than mine thanks for sharing that! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that info. Since that picture was taken, I have found a few more nice ones. I am due to take a new group picture. I'll try to get better pictures of my blue/green one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nickel Guy Posted yesterday at 12:39 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 12:39 AM Thank you. I don't know if I'll remember to post tomorrow for Akro Friday so I get in here a few hours early. I took these pictures after making that Blue Green gif. I have other Akros but I'm only showing my corkscrews and snakes here. There's about 5 lazy corks and a mutant boulder and another cool one that looks like a leaf appears on the beginning or end, but they both turn from pole to pole. These are now resting in the glass covered tray as seen in pic 1. I think they look better scattered rather than sorted by like kind, 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
