  5. Just pick out your favorite marble/marble related item and post it. I will!😁--a really tuff assignment, I know--just pick your favorite today--still tuff but here goes--- I never met Nadine MacDonald in person. She was the pinnacle of”just being a nice person” that collected marbles. She shared all of her knowledge freely and never with any contempt for those who challenged her. She was a “Marble Jedi” for sure. (She did know her Pelts very well) She also made some hand painted and glazed marbles that should be cherished by all. This one is one inch and I feel blessed just to have it. Marble—On Nadine!!

  10. 1” Slag that is our favorite for two reasons, we love slag’s and how we came upon it. Was at our first major auction with many local collectors. Didn’t have a clue about marbles since we had just started collecting (spring 2023). All the seasoned collector’s bought every lot except the last one, I think they felt sorry for us. Was in the bottom of the dish all covered up. After that moment we were hooked.

  12. I got three very similar marbles here. Must have been made on the same day many decades ago. Please excuse the original dust and crumbs. This is just how they looked as I took them out of a very old envelope. They are going to get a little cleaning before they join their new friends in my glass covered trays. Please tell me what we are? Thank you so much ! These images were tweaked a bit to show details. Contrast, sharpness and lighting etc. The Trio

  16. Had my best Score in some time at the Antique Mall in Stewartville, MN. On Friday...waited until today to search through all these baggies plus 2 jars. Also grabbed 3 original packaged bags...the best part of today? Going through them with our very own Melissa! Had a blast, neighbor! It was great hooking up and sharing this score with you! We separated roughly 25 or so marbles I believe. We identified a few but most will be posted at some point for our fellow collectors here to help pin down ID's...

  23. To be a double ingot that crease (or evidence of it) should go all the way around the marble. And this one looks more like a game marble to me. Flinties will have an opalescent glow when backlit and many will display "fish eyes" at the poles. I think Akro may have packaged them as Fire Opals too.

  24. Like all marble types, there is a range in this type too. I am sure that that good Crows are a lot harder to than find than the same type of marble that doesn't show a good crow pattern. The later were probably dug by the thousands. Maybe the definition of a Crow has expanded to include any marble of the same type, it wouldn't be the first definition that has been expanded for marketing purposes. Having said that, buy what you like and call them what you will. I'll do the same. 🙂
