Anyone know what/who THIS die is advertising for?

A few years ago, I walked into my game store and sorted through their random dice set and found a number of d10s with the magic mana symbols on them, specifically fire and plains. Did they make a set for all 5 of the colors? Do you have any idea where I could get more?

Who makes old school plastic dice like used to come in D&D boxed sets from the 1980's?

Yes ... they made all 5 symbols

As far as where to get them ... I have not seen them in years ... and my guess is they were produced without permission of WOTC

Noone now ... THESE old 'ablative' dice quickly fell to the wayside when Armory and Gamescience released their precision edged dice

Can't find that rare (or not so rare) die?

Ever wonder what a wierd die is used for?

Just want to talk about dice?

Then this is the thread for you ...

I have been gaming and collecting dice since 1977 and am the current Guinness World Record Holder for the Largest Collection of Dice ... so fire away if you need dice info

Ok, here is one for you:
This dice is a d10, made of purple glass. It is probably german, and i saw it first in the mid 1970s, but I guess it is much older.
How old is it? What was it made for?

Zodiac and I have been talking offline about this one ...

HERE is an enhanced version of the photo

This one has me stumped ... anybody ever seen this style of d10 before?

If so ... have you seen a spare?

We both think it is pre 1950, I assume it could be from the 1920s or even earlier. There was an other dice with it, that is sadly lost, this one could have been a d20. Someone in my CoC Forum indicated it could have been used for fortune telling or some occult purpose.
