Here's one of the harder of the Akro Agate POPEYE family to get your hands on: the DARK PURPLE and YELLOW version. This one is really quite a bit more scarce than the lighter purple and those are hard enough to find. The white wispy threads on this one presents a fabulous pattern as it leads the way for the colors to twist around each other.
CONDITION: MINT 9.6 The surface is wet and shiny with the look of a brand new marble. I can find no evidence of play or wear, but there are some microscopic as-mades that are only visible with the aid of a bright light and lens or these enlarged pictures. Click on the first picture for an even larger view and look at the upper right quadrant around the edge to see the microscopic details I am refering to. You may click here to view the grading system I use. Size 15.98mm or 0.628" at the equator. | |||||
