    Pelt Rainbo

    There are 'bos with silver/gray ribbons, and Zebras with black ribbons so it seems like . . .maybe?

    Pelt Rainbo

    This one is similar in structure . . . Sorta cat's eye looking and disappearing vanes.
  3. My preference is one that can report fractional inches. Unfortunately, most of these will report to 1/128ths inch increments, which is way too precise for marbles, IMO. Vintage American marbles were sized in 1/16 inch increments so, for example, any marble that would fall through a 5/8" hole but would not pass through a 9/16" hole would be sold as a No. 0. Any marble that would pass through an 11/16" hole but not a 5/8" hole was a No. 1, etc. And I can think of no case where a 1/32" difference in a marble's size would definitively change its ID.
  4. That color on a Pelt would be very rare, IMO.
  5. Way to go, Dave! I am with you two, not me, not in this lifetime.
  6. I'm leaning towards a JABO Classic too.
  7. That's a nice marble, Art! And you are right, opaque Masters are hard to find at that size.
  8. This is a great Vitro! I really like them with a lot of transparent glass.
  9. Not an American marble. I think it is a Vacor from Mexico but not sure of the name.
  10. Another Akro, I think.
  11. A real mineral Moss Agate is what I was thinking.
  12. Great color and eyelashes on this one, Bruce!
  13. No doubt, your health must come first, Chris. Please continue to focus on your well being and take good care of yourself!
  14. I think it might be a Moss Agate. It's super cool - downright galactic!
  15. No two ways about it, William, that is a dandy!
  16. I agree, Stephen's hosting and production skills are top notch, but you and your collection are the stars of these videos, Ron!
  17. I agree, it's an excellent example. It seems like Vacors lose more and more definition as they get larger.
  18. That's pretty cool, just a little unsettling. Do you think he made it?
  19. I like the new marble word for those that Chad brought up, "Baldys".
