I am a newbie and I get what you are saying, and it makes sense, it does get confusing for newbies sometimes. There is an old saying in hunting "Its not about the prize, its about the hunt", so long as we find what we are looking for in the process, then its all good, and fun.

Awe.. Absolutely beautiful marbles Chad, absolutely stunning! 😲

Flicker started following Anyone Seen One Of These Before? , Is this a Peltier or CAC? and Akro Agate - Superman

G'day Folks! My first guess was a CAC, but I have seen similar Pelt's, size is a bee's knee over 16mm. Cheers
-
G'day Folks! Here is one of many nice Akro's I have to show, it sure can do with a polish, its size is just over 20mm. Cheers

Thank you Al

Oh thank you, I do love metallic flakes in car paint, and Lutz marbles.
-
lol, I don't really know, its just something someone had mentioned about this marble (years ago) that stuck in my head.
-
Yeah mate, had trouble sleeping last night and took these pics under lights, I will try again shortly for better quality.
-
I do remember one thing someone had told me (a while ago that has stuck in my mind) is that it's an "African" of some make, which I don't recall. I looked up Vacor Hurricane on images searches and I did find one that was on eBay (but no longer available to view).

Sure is hard to focus inside these clearies to the point where everything is in focus, I still need to work out the cameras aperture, iso and shutter speed on my dslr.
-
I still need to learn some marble lingo, what does AV mean? this does have lots of bubbles, I am sure that's one of the reasons I purchased this one back in the day, the only reason I am stumped on its make as being a Pelt is that the banana itself has a sharp Z shape banana, where all other Pelts with bananas I remember seeing had no so sharp cornering like this one.
-
Ah.. I knew there was something I forgot to do with the photos, cropping! good idea, will do from now on. The glass looks very clear to me, so you think its not a Pelt?

I guess a repair was out of the question.
