Maybe the seller offers combined shipping and they're getting 10 marbles for $14.25?
-
Certainly no apology necessary, Mary, it takes a little practice. I just wanted to draw your attention to the issue.
-
Welcome here, Mary. You'll want to avoid reflections as much as possible, because sometimes it's hard to tell whether you're looking at a pattern in the marble or a reflection of the environment on the marble. When I try to mentally remove the reflections from your pics, I think you might have a hand-gathered brick (oxblood) marble here.
-
Okay, last guess . . . a spiral?
-
Maybe a Prize Name, Onyx or Special?
-
He'll say, "I sell marbles, not corkscrews."
-
Does that mean you've seen one, and I have something else to hunt for?
-
Cool technique, I like it!
-
I agree - unglazed, I think.
-
I have two - both about the same size.
-
Thanks, Rick, mine is about shooter size too.
-
. . . a well deserved coronation, indeed. Congratulations Queen Steph!
-
At one point, I thought this might be a Green Sunset but, nah . . .
-
Years ago, I think there was some consensus that this type was Peltier, but I was never too sure about it. Any thoughts? Any others to post?
-
Thanks Cheese, I wonder if there's an American company that didn't make a RW&B marble.
-
Thanks Al, that's sort of what I thought too - kind of a stretch to call them Champion Jrs. when so many other types were found in the same bags, and I will be dropping the term for ID from here on out.
-
Good idea - it sounds like fun! I'll bet a lot of those kids are going to show those pucks to their own children someday.
-
Dang, that's a cool mib - looks like a starfish in there!
-
I'm not too knowledgable about these types but the open poles suggest they have been polished. I doubt they are "end of day" marbles.
-
That job would be far beneath any cat.
-
or something, maybe . . . ?
-
Win? Was I competing somehow? I don't really get it.
-
Do you know if that is true for each variant? I've only seen 9/16" like the ones I posted and I've only seen 5/8" like the ones you posted. I have not seen any at 11/16".
-
Thanks, Ron. There are two marbles there. Pretty sure I bought every one I had a chance at. The second one you posted is probably the nicest I have ever seen - four colors on a Ravenswood -wow! The two I posted are both 9/16" - I'm betting yours are 5/8"?
-
I'd say it's an Inky - the base is just a little less yellow than most, perhaps.
