I'd say a newer Marble King.
-
Nice size and nice color too!
-
Jumpin' Jimminy man, that's a killer!
-
I certainly don't have the intrepidity it's going to take . . .
-
I think you'll be lucky to get a good ID on this one, Art. It's kinda amorphous.
-
The middle, pinkish, one is a Vitro Conqueror.
-
#4 is an Alley Superman.
-
I think #1 is a JABO and I'll have to think on #4 a bit . . .

A couple of 25 count Ravenswood Buddy mesh bags . . . When I found them it looked like they'd spent 50 years in a chicken coop and they were filthy so I pulled the marbles out and cleaned everything up. The headers were disintegrating when I found them so they're displayed like this in a pin-case now.

That's a dandy marble, Art! At 9/16" My first thought is an exceptional Ravenswood . . . my second thought is Sistersville Alley.

Some folks collect eggs too. If you like them you can always try to collect more. 🙂 -

There There are some folks who go out of their way to collect footballs. Their best ones have two pointed ends - apparently they're a bit harder to find. -
Thanks for the much better pics - I agree with Akro.
-
It's hard to see much detail in the pics.
-
Appears to be an Akro patch on the right and a couple of lazy corkscrews on the left.

Some nice finds there - the pink one is great. The fired clay marble is often referred to as an Akron Roller but I am not sure they were made by AM&T Co. -
I would say most likely newer MK double patches but sometimes these types and similar Vitros can be tough to tell apart.

You gotta love drizzle . . .
-
A nice variety to start off West Virginia Wednesay!
-
Man, I see what you mean about a light polish on the big one - it really does look sweet! The others ain't too bad either. Great snags!
-
I think you're doing remarkable work for having just started. My favorite in this group is the blue and green one, for sure. And I definitely see the snake head on that last one.
-
Alley definitely wouldn't shock me. And just FYI, the term "diaper fold" is usually associated with a specific type of fold found on CAC marbles. Check this post for a good example.
-
If you consider your first pic the top of the mib, I think a pic of the front (the side facing the bottom of that pic) would go a long way toward a correct ID.
-
It's hand gathered and machine rounded so it is a transitional. And it looks like a good possibility of being an American Agate too.
-
No pic . . . ?
