moremarbles4me Posted May 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2007 never thougth to blacklight it. The off white base turns an odd color brown and the white ribbon in the center glows like a limeade. Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moremarbles4me Posted May 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2007 Thats odd that this type of marble was dug, well maybe not.
