Yellow inner ring...

Got an older solid blue label slab today with the full inner ring, not an edge view. The ring is pretty yellowed.

I suspect the previous owner had it sitting in the sun attempting to tone it? What do you think?

Great transactions with oih82w8, JasonGaming, Moose1913.

    That would be my guess---prolonged exposure to sun light.

    Last year, I had bought out an outdoor flea market vendor, and several of his slabs had same problem.

    Blue label with yellow inner ring...agree with exposure to sun light.

    I like the older green labels with the yellow rings though...

    I have seen a few others that share similar traits that i thought looked pretty neat. Should this be a concern?

    Maybe they should start a tally of yellow ring slabs. It sounds like something I might pay big money to collect!image
