At 0.509", I'm not saying that this marble is a true PeeWee. Officially, to qualify as a PeeWee, the diameter of the marble must not exceed 0.500". Missing out by a meer 9/1000" deserves an honorable mention though, so just to be clear, I can't tell the difference one way or the other when this marble is displayed with my true PeeWees.
About half of the marble is translucent green glass sporting lines and ribbons of gunmetal blue, aventurine green, black aventurine, and yellow. The other half is a transparent, dark forest green with sheer black aventurine and semiopaque green aventurine lines. I once thought that the Master Marble Manufacturers, MMM, were the makers of this marble. After viewing the opinions of several others, including some respected collectors, and after even closer examination, I must admit my mistake. I yield to the learned majority: Marble King is indeed the maker of this marble. CONDITION: MINT(+) 9.8 The slick, shiny surface has no anomalies at all, factory-made or child-induced.
