marblenewbie Posted October 26, 2022 Report Share Posted October 26, 2022 I believe all these mibs are Akro with the one on the right being a corkscrew with colors I have never seen before. Especially the purple with white swirls at .64. I read somewhere that this type of Cork is HTF. ?? The middle one is a corkscrew that I am not sure has Ox Blood at .62. It appears to brown to me. ?? On the left at .70 I am thinking Imperial. Comments appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'llhavethat1 Posted October 26, 2022 Report Share Posted October 26, 2022 At a quick glance looks like Akro deserving better pics. One on the left might be a nice CAC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marblenewbie Posted October 26, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2022 Hopefully these are better. Still not very good at pics. If more needed glad to oblige. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marblenewbie Posted October 26, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2022 Looking closer at the middle one Ox I am beginning to see ox. Maybe wishful thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire1981 Posted October 27, 2022 Report Share Posted October 27, 2022 Once again ! Does the base glass UV pop on #1 🔥 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marblenewbie Posted October 27, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2022 Yes, it does pop under regular light like crazy, but my UV flashlight burned out the other day so don't know if it does with UV. I hope it helps with the ID as I have two more just like this one. If this isn't good enough I will get another UV light and post all three. Thanks to everyone for the ID help.

akroorka Posted October 27, 2022 Report Share Posted October 27, 2022 Imperial may be right on the first one, these were all over the place with coverage and often showed a swirl effect more than a corkscrew. I have some that do not glow in this color. They could have been marketed as “Moss Agates” as well. Marble—On!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marblenewbie Posted October 27, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2022 Thanks Art, I think it is an older mib before they made corkscrews. Info from a Texas website indicated that. Picture attached. Thanks everyone for your help!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'llhavethat1 Posted October 27, 2022 Report Share Posted October 27, 2022 I was thinking more along CAC American Agate, or else Peltier Prima Agate as possibilities for the first. Pretty sure there are some archive posts I should read up on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ann Posted October 28, 2022 Report Share Posted October 28, 2022 Very good point. I`ve never seen it mentioned anywhere if the Prima Agate or American Agate would fluoresce, though. Does anybody know? Has Hansel ever thrown UV on his boxes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
