In late 1988, two Peltier workers made a one-day run of marbles. There were two styles, both about 1" in diameter. The Root Beer Float is a transparent dark amber base with a flat wide white vane in the middle; and The NOVA, a black base with a colored patch on either side. This example has a blending yellow, orange, and red in the patches.
CONDITION: MINT(-) 9.2 The surface is wet and shiny without the slightest hint of play or wear of any kind. All I can find, and I didn't see this until I began to edit the pictures, is a shallow annealing hairline that is visible in the third picture. These are sometimes caused by the cooling process. There is no danger of the marble cracking or breaking apart, just one of those things that sometimes happen. You may click here to view the grading system I use. Size 22.90mm or 0.901" at the equator. | |||||
