MINT(+) 5/8" Christensen Agate Co. GUINEA/COBRA HYBRID

Item# GM2008
Here is one of the most unique and sought after marbles in the collecting world: A CAC GUINEA/COBRA HYBRID. Either a GUINEA or a COBRA is a lifetime find, but to have them both in one marble is nearly unheard of. As with most GUINEAs, nearly the entire CAC pallette has been incorporated in the making of this beautiful example.
I've seen a couple of these over the years, but most of them only had a couple of streaks or blobs of color sort of hanging down from one of the surface colors. The interior of this one has as much going on as the outside and that's saying a lot. This could very well be one of those one-of-a kind marbles that you hear about but seldom see.
I must say, that these are some of the better marble pictures I've ever taken, but they still fail to show all of the color and action that is going on with this marble.
CONDITION: MINT(+) 9.7 or better. The surface has the wet shiny look of a brand new marble with no sign of play or wear what-so-ever. The only anomoly that I can find, of any kind, is a single tiny open air-bubble with melted edges visible near the center of the fourth picture--clearly as-made.
