Yes, another Type I Tiger Eye - backlight it to make sure you get to know the clear transparent base glass - look especially at the places where the patches and ribbons interface.

That's why they call it "veneer" - just a surface coating of color - it really reduces the price of making colorful marbles when 98% of the marble is clear transparent glass. They used the same trick with white base glass, which is only slightly more expensive.
