I guess this is one of my favorite of the Peltier Multi Color Swirls family: red, white, and green ribbons meet at two seams on the surface of a pale, almost clear, coke-bottle green base. As I began to collect the transparent examples of the more famous varieties of Peltiers, Christmas Trees, Liberties, and such, I have suprisingly discovered that these are harder to come by than the supposedly more rare opaque examples, especially when looking for the mint offerings such as this one.
CONDITION: MINT 9.5 The surface is wet and shiny with just the faintest whisper of light, nearly microscopic, wear that doesn't even show up in these enlarged pictures. There is a sort of roughish spot that looks to me like the leading edge of a sub-surface air bubble--very shallow according to the fingernail test. Presents dead mint in hand.
