Has that steel grey/blue base on it sorta like kokomo and kinda mimics a vitro style marble but it also reminds me of an imperial marble with the red yellow and blue. Idk what's your thoughts?

With the yellow stripe on the other side plus the red and blue ribbons, I'd be going with the Imperial" type of foreign marble - probably Asian.

Lets get this straight--"Imperial" did not make marbles---they were/are a jobber out of California--they did sell marbles for sure but they purchased them--repackaged them and sold them.
Most are from Asian countries--a whole bunch of them--some may be from Mexico.
Check out some Imps on e-bay and check the country of origin on the box.
The Imperial name is one that has been used for many years—just not real though—just a re-seller.
Marble—On!!

I knew that imperial didn't make marbles but thought they were all made in asia i didnt know Mexico made some too I just assumed that I suppose.

Just for info - Imperial package with the Made in Mexico info (70's time frame) - before they found out they could buy marbles cheaper from Asia.
