    Thanks Ron. Yep, need to get it in my hands. Will keep you updated.

    Found this on the oldraremarbles website.

    I remember a post saying anything over 2-3/8” is extremely rare, and $$$. Will hunt for it..

    I have not had it in hand to verify the size yet…

    The “eyes” have it!

    The idea that there are other people who just “happen” to carry random marbles around in their pockets gives hope that I’m not weird. I have carried a coprolite as a pocket talisman for years. Got it from my grandfather, a geologist.

    I never get stuck in a hotel… I always research where I’m going, with Craigslist and local antique stores. Made some awesome buys while working away from home. I’ve “trained” my wife to do the same, she comes up with some incredible finds.

    This one has been listed in Seattle for maybe 2+ years. https://portland.craigslist.org/clc/clt/d/pahrump-marbles-sulfide-spheres/7449342455.html

    I have met with many on Craigslist for marbles and other items. Educating them is pointless, as they claim they saw similar sales on feebay. It can get depressing😢

    https://portland.craigslist.org/wsc/atq/d/portland-21-rare-antique-german-marbles/7458603681.html I won’t be the one educating them…

    Yep, there’s a lot of copperplated 43 steelies out there too.
  15. schmoozer
    We used to take copper Pennys and “soak” them in mercury, making them look like steel. Not sure what a non-43 steelie would be worth🤔. and yes, we broke open old thermometers, and played with the mercury in our hands. My third eye now needs cataract surgery🤣🤣🤣

    And you just had a 12-s sitting on your desk for reference??? If so, we are twin sons of different mothers👍👍

    Small score, my first sulfide ever, after 25 years. $15 thrift store find. 1-7/16” lamb. Ground pontil mark, lots of fine surface ripples. Classic air bubbles on each side. my sulfide collection is now complete!

    William, a master mixologist😁

    So, the question is… will you open it and try it out???🤔
  22. schmoozer
