Very busy tan/cream swirl??

[treetiger]

Howdy-- I'm not sure what this 5/8's " marble is but the swirls are very 'busy'. There seems to be a lot going on. I couldn't find seams, but maybe sharper eyes can find them. Any ideas as to what it is would be appreciated. Thanks!

I'm thinking that's an Alley Agate from Pennsboro. And cutoffs on West Virginia Swirls like this are usually buried somewhere in the pattern of the marble - you shouldn't expect to see them like you might on an Akro or a Vitro, for instance.

Just to help when looking for seams on swirls (generally called cuts or cut lines when dealing with swirls), here is an edited pic along with your original pic showing one cut end of the stream. The other end is buried as Ric described.

Thanks cheese. A lot to learn--I'm writing this down. Best wishes and happy turkey day!
