cheese Posted July 1 Report Share Posted July 1 It's the marble that once was being called the Sistersville Patch, however it's been accepted by most everyone I believe that Sistersville did not make patches and these are Akros along with the other patches dug at Sistersville. They are exact matches. I've seen it called a robin egg patch a lot lately too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A match to this marble posted on Reddit a few weeks ago and received this response on it. I called it a Robins egg, and this was a response I got.... incredible information. I can't post the link, but here are some screen shots 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted July 1 Report Share Posted July 1 I think one of the most plausible reasons that so many patches were found at Sistersville is because the marble jobber Rosenthal was there and they packaged all kinds of different marbles in bags and boxes from that location. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
