Here's one of Akro Agate's most popular CORKSCREWs. It's even more than the tri-color SPECIAL with the robin's-egg blue base glass and red and yellow corks that give it the SUPERMAN name; there is also, a thin-line orange corkscrew and a streak of an off-white running down the center of the blue. Also there is a dark brown line running close to the edge of the yellow as a highlight. Quite an impressive pattern.
CONDITION: NEAR MINT 8.7 The surface still has a nice shine to it but there is light, what I call, pocket wear pretty much all over. I don't see any impact marks, and the marble really doesn't look like it was played with, just carried around in some lads pocket to show off would be my guess. You can see even in these enlarged pictures that the wear is quite light, and is even less noticeable in hand. You may click here to view the grading system I use. Size 20.78mm or 0.818" at the equator. | |||||
