I agree with Ric. This one is a bit weird but I think Pelt is the right call. Maybe @cheese or @Chad G. will have a better handle on this one. Marble--On!!

chocomibs Posted January 10, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 Here's some other pics with different lighting. Maybe a "dragons eye"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 I'll agree with Chad - a "tweener" that really wanted to be a Dragon but didn't quite get there. Not a Dragon's Eye either, IMO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 Back to the OP---love it!! It is not"just a "Dragon" or not just a "Rainbo". It is a special NLR Dragon imho. This is a very nice find and not very common. Marble--On!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 That little bit of blue that peeks through is really cool. I agree, definitely a unique Pelt. Very nice 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheese Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 I have some of these, they are nice rainbos, later than the NLRs. Good looking ones though, no name. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 The blue and green in the base reminds me of some bifurcated Pelts I've seen. There's one in this group of Pelts I gave brother Bill for Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff54 Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 I believe that yellow and green base is a Dragon and Flamming Dragon at that. Got plenty red blending on the ribbons. Regardless, even old style green and yellow are dragons without any red, where better is when the red is flaming. I have two 3/4" and four 5/8"" that are older style NLR with yellow/red blending, 'Flaming' and one 5/8" Dragon with no red or Flames. White yours is not the same as my older NLR's it's got the right colors and blending. I think the only difference is, older is a more favored NLR and newer. I mean, If on the chopping block as a Flamming Dragon for sale, mine would have a higher following. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheese Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 Green and yellow without red are called girlscouts, john deeres, or lemon limes, depending on the configuration and glass, but not dragons. 8 minutes ago, Jeff54 said: I believe that yellow and green base is a Dragon and Flamming Dragon at that.

Agreed--for sure.---almost--- maybe a week or two later than NLRs---or months---or years. No name--nice marble--worth collecting--no doubt--no doubt--- "a week or two later" was just a way to get this thing moving---- I love a good discussion and Pelts always bring it !! It is a very nice marble--!! Lets hear some more!! Marble—On!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of those you mentioned have the same green or orange/red/yellow that a Dragon does. I also have all you said, plus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you meant something else or I'm reading it wrong. I dunno. Either way it wounds like we are on the same page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocomibs Posted January 10, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 The flaming ones have orangey bands I think, regular dragons are just red. I have this killer one I think is a dragons eye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvrons Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 I always thought that the Pelt Dragon was green base(no blue)with red ribbons. Pelt Flaming Dragon was green base(no blue)with orange or orange and red ribbons. I did not know of any yellow with the Pelt Dragons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
