Michael...

I am glad that I had the pleasure of seeing that marble first hand. What you did not mention is that there are two things that make that a rare marble. First of all is the size. I think you told me that it is a "mini"? Also it is an end of the rod marble. That means it was the last marble in that batch of glass. You cannot see it in the picture but it only has a pontil mark on one side...so it was the last one blown in that batch. That is probably the prettiest marble I have ever seen come from the ground. Congrats bud..!!!
