rockgardenplants Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 Here's a pic of one from Etsy. I don't have access to my marble books right now, but I think you're right. It is a transparent banded coreless. I found this about "Indians" on Marble Alan's page: INDIANS Indian Swirls typically possess an opaque black base. However, some are translucent (so-called Maglites, since a powerful flashlight is required to make light pass through them), and these will have an amethyst, dark green, red, amber, or blue base.

Chad G. Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 Agree, Banded Transparent IMO. I have heard of some newer collectors calling them "Clear (transparent) Indians" but if you ask me it's just adding to the confusion. Indians are typically opaque black based, the biggest one shown in this group is actually a dark transparent green color, a "maglite Indian" An underlit view of the Dark green Maglite Indian w/ (ghost core) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just a change in nomenclature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad G. Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 Maglites are too dark to see through w/ the naked eye, the OP is transparent IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
