With two recent donations of $100 each from two members, we now have $241 applied toward advanced hosting fees, so about nine months of hosting! It will be seven years next month since @LouisCamp handed me the reigns to the site. To give you an idea how old this forum is, Louis's account was created in June of 2005. I couldn't have kept it going these seven years without the financial support and our moderators. Discussion forums are rare these days, and this forum in particular is priceless in its wealth of information about this great hobby. I hope it will always be around even after I have to pass it on to some some younger collector who is also a tech geek. 😎5 points

@crashbelt @Royal3 @Alta @Chad G. Wow, you've been posting some great marbles since I was last here! Here's an 11/16" marble I've never seen before. I'm calling it a Caramel Ribbon Swirl with Mica. Caramel Swirls with Mica are a thing, but the ribbons in this one are very similar to what you would find in a clear glass ribbon lutz. No lutz here, unfortunately, but it's a pretty rare find and pretty cool IMO. I thought about adding "end of cane" since the ribbons thin out and lose their structure before they reach the faceted pontil. I even considered "end of day" since it's such an oddball - no sense getting carried away though. 😉 Please let me know if you've seen another or think I might be off with my description. 🙂

I am a fan of Marble King and Oct/Nov has been good to me, a couple marble friends and trades and sales have even been better yet. In this group are some cross through cats, blended Girl Scouts and my first ever Girl Scout. ( I'll never forget my first Girl Scout ) A pretty cool wasp, Bumblebee Shooter and a pair of nice players to go with it. Perhaps a hybrid anemic bee there. Some nice tri color rainbows, maybe one has 4 colors on the left. That pink patched one glows bright under UV and I am told that very one came right off the ground at Marble King and commented on by Beri Fox to my friend the finder. I see some aventurine in there on one. Some Rainbow Reds, an Irish or maybe even two, a blue Rainbow with perhaps that Kato patch. This group gives my MK collection a little boost for sure. Thanks for looking!

HTF marble, especially in mint condition. The more the oxblood, the higher the price. With heavy oxblood they can go $300+4 points

Look at the left row of calligraphies in Ron Shepherd's salesman sample box. Where does flame end and calligraphy begin? I would put this marble next to my calligraphies and consider it to be one some days and not one some days depending on how it hit me on that day. It's borderline. Some of the other calligs in this case are less busy than the OP marble, for whatever that's worth.

I've not kept up to date on current marble finds. This used to be quite rare. Has anyone else found one lately?

Not sure why you would make a torch marble and then beat it up and sell it as a near mint marble.4 points
