Just acquired this mib in a lot . took it into the sun for some pics 

Has an a crazy base glass like opal with some blue tint or something the cork I thought was black but it is dark dark purple .

I got some shots of the blue tint it is crazy it's like 2 marbles when the light shines through the blue.

I am amazed at this one Tommy—just flaber-gassed. I have never seen one like it.
99% of the black that you see in marbles/glass is either purple, brown, green, grey or blue. 
True black is a very hard find in any glass and I remember having some heated discussions with our old friend Ron regarding this “no black glass thing”. He convinced me that there is true black glass and had recipes to back him up—I gave up and have yet to see it in hand.
This is just a great corkscrew—why would one quit collecting them? They are always showing up as one offs or very special ones.
Backlight them all----
I just love this stuff.
Thanks for sharing this one.
Marble—On!!

Maybe the 2nd Crow for our collection.  

Not a Crow my marble collecting friend--a cousin for sure (maybe a Grackle:wub: not a name just a joke here).

The right hand one is just top notch---love it--great marble!

Thanks for sharing these.

Marble--On!!
