Another strange oxblood.

It might be another Golden Onyx Oxblood because it's definitely an Onyx. 

Just FYI, Akro may have used the term "onyx" to describe a few different marbles but most collectors use Onyx to refer to marbles that have a white spiral in colored base glass, since that is what Akro called them in their Salesman cases and literature.

This may also have been an add-on in a high-end Popeye box.

Popeye boxes did rarely involve this type of marble—oxbloods.
It would never have been an “add on”—just part of a group of oxbloods in a “Popeye box”. Rare to find but “Popeye Boxes” have a list of different sizes and contents.
We are all familiar with the basic “Popeye Box” but there are more out there in different sizes and contents.
Marble—On!!
