    What size is it?
  2. Good to see you post, Chris - really great photos. The first marble is super nice! The big one is great too- cold roll or not. And I agree that the last one looks different than the others. It may be German while the others are Dutch. But I don't know for sure.

    Orange Slag

    I stand corrected - striped transparent, but not a slag.
  4. Here's a little better shot of my "moon" key ring marble . . .
  5. Thanks, Stephen. Vitros and Kokomos are about the only marbles with cut lines that I actually collect.
  6. I've had these two on my key chains for years and years.

    Orange Slag

    I'd consider the German striped transparent a type of slag. And I've seen this sort of "damage" on a number of old marbles. I think it may have been intentionally done with a file or blade of some sort to produce a thumbnail hold so the shooter could get better 'english' on their shots.
  8. Had to ask, since these are all about 11/16".

    I believe you, Rick. It's like Art said, that transparent color is notoriously tough to capture. Putting it on a yellow background with good lighting might help.
  10. Boy howdy, Stephen, these are great mibs! I like the old ones with a lot of transparent glass - great examples. I'll bet the 3rd one is a little oversized- 11/16"?
  11. So . . . about two bucks and change? ☺️
  12. Good luck with that, Art. I'll be hoping it all goes splendidly, and that you have a quick recovery!
  13. Similar maybe, but I see a good bit of transparent orange in Art's. I have some like yours and as I recall they are opaque. And these pics actually look pretty good compared to others I've seen, so whatever you're doing now, keep doing it.

    Looks like a German striped transparent to me.

    MK

    I think newer but not too new. I have no real idea of when it was made though - maybe 1990s-2000s?
  16. Flat side or not, the first one is great!
  17. They look like newer MKs or maybe foreign, at least to me.
  18. Why not a big Vitro gone wild? I see two cut lines.
