Way to start the day off, William! Coral is always a nice color!

That's a nice bit of glass - looks like it could use a good bath. π

Mine too, if you ignore the big dimple. lol

Here is one of few in my collection . . . it's 1 and 9/16". I think many people will recognize the Artist. -

Nice show, Rick! Crazy variety - some very cool stuff in there! -

That's a great group of marbles and a nice photo too - digging the Athabasca, Alberta item. Is it a bowl? Is there a connection or a story behind it?

Are those little transparent "fish eyes" I see on the two right ones in the first pic? At 3/4", could they be Akro Flinties? It would be interesting to see what they looked like with back-lighting.

Wow, Alan, what a show! It's indescribable. You have a keen eye for beautiful marbles, IMO, and a collection we are very lucky to see! -
See what you started . . . lol.

I just posted these in Sunday Best . . . At least I hope they're Ghosts . . . I probably should have backlit them too.
-
Sure thing. You might want to see @wvrons pic too.

And I agree on the purple one. A good dark purple or black one is always nice to find!

Those are nice - some of the best crystal glass in the business IMO. The thing about Peltier bananas and vanes is not so much their number as their "plumpness". If vanes start getting thin and they are separating lengthwise at the core, it might be wise to consider other possible manufacturers. Myself, I like my Peltier Bananas fat and with fewer vanes - the bigger the better. But of course, that's just me. π

Nice, and it's interesting, but not too surprising, that the pattern of many game marbles is similar to that of the manufacturer's other marbles. I found a good Vitro Tomato awhile ago and got pretty excited about it! βΊοΈ
