I found some smaller ones online, but nothing this size. Thinking contemporary, you can see the seams. not worth $22 each, imho.

Found these 2 listed as quartz, ~1-3/8” did any American makers produce marbles like this?

Need a pic of the cat🙃

Did you bid on Roger Hardy’s collection? I think it was 7 figures..

Kids typically get dragged to antique shows by their parents, who rarely take the time to teach them about antiques. The look on their face when getting an unexpected gift is priceless.

We all appreciate your level of addiction!!!🙃🙃🙃

I gave out maybe 20 bags to kids at the last glass show, some even to adults who looked they were going to cry because they weren’t for sale. (I even got a hug from one older lady.) I was away from the booth and a lady handed my wife $20 for 4 random bags of $.10 marbles. the funniest was 2 kids, I told them not to open the bags until they got home. The look the kids gave the Mom was hilarious, the “we are going home NOW!” Look. Mom folded and off they went…

Cool mib regardless. the fun part of this hobby is that it is whatever the owner wants it to be. When they pass it on to the next caretaker, they can call it whatever they want🙃

$ Value is secondary to most true collectors…😬

This dealer has sold some awesome mibs

Wait, you have “un-sorted” Germans???🤯 is that a pre-64 silver dime?

Thanks for the offer but…na.😬 need to check my book on lion rarity…

2” lion sulphide marble. Couldn’t pass it up for $25.

I expect there you tomorrow morning when it opens…

Our house has 5 separate modes plus 3 aerial (parrot) alarms. Doesn’t matter if by land, sea, or the skies, we are covered. have you ever seen one of these? https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2016/01/18/paradigm-srp-talon-remote-weapon-mount-hands-on-impressions/

IMHO, the back right is a top-shelf keeper🎉🎉 Love the contrasting color.

We have one like this…

Xmas present from the wife, no idea what she paid for it…

I know where one is…😬

More Houze colors than AKRO…

Houze…UV

I am giving away roughly 30 bags of random mibs tomorrow to kids, 6 to 12, at a local antique show. Is there an inexpensive booklet that can accompany the bags? I know this is a late request but even links to websites are appreciated. Looking for entry-level information. The field needs new participants.

If you don’t want them, I’ll take both, will even pay for shipping🙃😬🙃

bought from oldraremarbles.com in Portland. Was it yours before?😬😬😬

I sold a very similar example, 7/8” at the 2008 Sistersville show. Been regretting it ever since…
