akroorka Posted March 18, 2022 Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 9 hours ago, Mojo said: First picture ....Popeye Hybrid ? Hello Mojo, I think that "Hybrid" would be a stretch. I think that it may be a "Popeye" though. Popeyes had a much more vibrant yellow than a "moss agate"imho. I posted a few moss agates below for you to compare with, they are all 5/8". Moss agates of this type (non patch) were a wild thing, often showing as a swirl more than a corkscrew. The image of three combined shows a moss agate with clear transparent and some interior whispiness involved. It obviously has a moss base to it though.

akroorka Posted March 25, 2022 Report Share Posted March 25, 2022 These Oxblood patches have always caught my eye. Here are four that also caught my pocketbook. This type of patch has a whispy white interior which just could be opalescent. It is hard to really tell with the oxblood involved while backlighting—just instincts. I have only seen this type with green and with yellow included. Anyone seen any other colors? Marble—On!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
