  1. It's an unusually fancy Conqueror. Whether it actually classifies as a Fancy or an Elite, I think has to do with the color of the base glass. But I forget which is which and I think the definitions are a bit hazy either way.

    Elite ?

    It's a Tri-Lite, for sure. But what makes a Tri-Lite an "Elite" escapes me - I think that definition is somewhat subjective.

    Tiger Eye

    It's an odd one, regardless. If the base is transparent, I would say a wacky Type 1 - they are the only type with 3 colors plus white. If that is the case, what looks like a white ribbon was supposed to be a polar patch. If the base is opaque, it might be a Type 4 with an additional color where the second white polar ribbon should be. I hope this makes sense. Or maybe it's not a Tiger Eye. lol

    I'm thinking Akro.
  5. It might be Cairo, but it looks a little off to me - I wonder about other possibilities . . . JABO tank wash maybe?
  6. Just shy of 15/16". It looks like the run where lutz was blown on but I don't remember which run it was. Any ideas? It's a very cool marble, regardless.
  7. I posted this another thread but it fits here too . . .
  8. That's right, Joe. May as well keep all of the "Peltier Tuesday" marbles in the "Peltier Tuesday" thread, which is now up to 46 pages - it will just keep getting longer (more pages) as more posts are added. 🙂
  9. It doesn't look Pelt to me - might be another foreign marble.
  10. That's a great gift, Tommy! When you say "with these in it", you aren't referring to all of the American marbles in the pic too, or are you?
  11. In your earlier post, Art responded that Vacor Galaxys have an opaque base so this one may be Asian. And you sound like me. I never get rid of a marble I can't ID.
  12. It looks like a Galaxy to me but I'm no Vacor expert so that'll need verification.
  13. I'm getting a Heaton vibe.
  14. It does look Ravenswood to me. Another possibility might be Alley. Does it have a lot of fractures or am I seeing stains of some sort?
  15. Nice, Bill. How big is that divided core?
  16. I should have been more clear in my comment. If there are two distinct colors other than white, I would consider the marble a Prizename, even if it's on a white base. And don't worry about any comments to me - my feathers don't ruffle very easily. 🙂 My son, Jake, was a huge Pokemon fan too, and I always enjoyed playing with him. When he passed, he left behind a gigantic collection of cards. It took me weeks to sort and catalogue them. I sold all of the less valuable ones but kept a few hundred others. At one point, he had two complete first edition base sets, jungle sets, and gym sets. But he traded or sold most of them off to support his car and girl ambitions as he got older.
  17. As far as I know, Prize names have a colored (not white) base.
  18. IMO, it does look like a Corkscrew that disappears into the matrix a bit.
  19. Kind of a sloppy one, but it's large, so I'd say yes.
