MINT 5/8" Champion Agate AVENTURINE PATCH

Item# GM1886
I'm pretty sure this is a product of the Champion Agate Co. from back in the 1930's. Being a solid color black marble and the patch with the same color black except there is a very generous amount of aventurine. As with all of my marbles, if I have misrepresented anything about the marble I will gladly refund the price plus I will pay for the return shipping. I remember when these were tossed in the jar or tobacco tin as play marbles, but they have recently gained tremendously in popularity and as a result the price, like most hard to find marbles, has skyrocketed.
CONDITION: MINT 9.5 The surface has the wet shiney look you expect from a mint marble, and there is no sign of play or wear that I can find, even using a bright light and jeweler's loupe. I can see some roller marks? or possible touch marks of some sort and some creases, but everything I have described, and shown, clearly demonstrates they were as-made and occured while the marble was still near melting hot. In short, the marble is as mint as the day it was made.
