Check out my latest aquisition, Dog. Would you call this an "Egg Yolk Oxblood" or a "lemonade Oxblood"?

Sorry about the Photo. I'll post another when I get the marbles. I feel like a got a good deal either way whether it's one or the other. It's a 32nd shy of 3/4. Isn't that large for an Oxblood?

Lemonade Ox. You can get various types of Ox up to 1" with Akro.

Steubenville marble works....

Zane,
I'll come down and dig the marble works with you - I have been there several times but only ever find a handfull of glass each time. I wasn't really digging - just scratching around. I could never find anyone home next door to ask permission from. If you can get permission, I would love to tear into that place.

I've got a few loose marbles hanging around! Most of which I have also picked up while digging, or walkng in creeks. A few sleepers are here I'm sure. Willy

Brian, I'll look into getting permission to dig on the site. I've been working out of town so I didn't get to see your post until this morning.

Muddy post a few photos of your marbles if you wouldn't mind.

LC, yes it glows. It's a Lemonade Oxblood all lemonades and Limeades glow.
