There is a very nice Yin-Yan pattern showing in the first picture of this old Multi-Color Swirl that sports my favorite MCS colors: powder blue, yellow, and white, on a pale coke-bottle green base glass. With no seam, I about forced to believe t his marble was made using Peltier's first marble making machine the infamous MILLER--a story for another time and space.
CONDITION: MINT 9.5 The surface is wet and shiny and there is not the slightest hint of play or wear of any kind. All I can find at all, and that's with these enlarged pictures, is a rather mysterious black marks that are seen just to the left of center in the first picture. In fact, these pictures are the only place they show. I've inspected it under a bright light and loupe, and all I can see is a crease in the glass that thins out the white color so thin that the base glass shows through. Sounds improbably I know, but I was taken completely by surprise when I saw what you are seeing--only in the pictures. Also, what looks like sparkles, are bubble reflections down beneath the surface.
