This is a killer Copperhead . . . I don't think the OP marbles are Peltier. They look a lot like some of the P&R types Joep has found in the Netherlands - I think there was some speculation about Vitros sold overseas but I don't know about that - they do look more Vitro than any other American company to me though.

Definitely a sweet marble - 100% Vitro Tiger Eye.
-
I agree
-
Yes, Alley.
-
That first marble is great, Dave!
-
No. 0 should be 5/8", No. 00 should be 9/16" and No. 000 should be 1/2", at least by industry standards, which I am pretty sure Peltier used. I think @mibcapper might have a 3/4" (No. 2) Cerise too.
-
Thanks, Alan, the size makes them even more remarkable.
-
The ones with orange and white look like Du-Lites to me.
-
This one has his mark etched on it . . . is that what you're talking about?
-
I'm thinking about Champion.
-
I wouldn't go there just because it glows. And when identifying single-color Kokomos that are not one of the "special" colors, like that lipstick red, it's important to remember that they are vanishingly rare relative to Peltier Rainbos so it's usually wise to err on the side of Peltier.

I don't think I have seen any peewee MCSs.
-
I think the second may be Ravenswood and I could see Heaton possibilities for the third too.
-
I am leaning Akro, unless there is any hint of translucence - then I'd go Vitro.
-
Based on the glass and the really "scooped" seam in the second photo, I'd say foreign.
-
Alley x3
-
I agree, but if I had to guess I'd say Alley.
-
That's a very cool marble, Tommy!
-
These are really outstanding marbles - the complexity is amazing. About how big are they?
-
The first and second are Alleys - the first is very nice, and I am pretty sure the third is Alley too.
-
I think that is an Imperial - Asian.
-
Cool, Art. I'm thinking inserts like that are pretty unusual in a #230 box - but then, the format of the one with the girl on it is less common too - maybe the only inserts that were reinforced with metal were in that particular box?
-
Maybe a very odd dug Pelt? Otherwise, I'm not really seeing it.
