A few newer 4-color Marble Kings.
-
Yabba-dabba-doo!
-
Part of what had me thinking Pelt . . .
-
The first is a Prizename and the last is a two-color Spiral (Corkscrew). I never heard of a "Buttermilk" Akro. That name is usually associated with a particular type of Vitro.
-
Akro may have marketed it as an Ace - nice marble.
-
I think RAR nailed it. And yes, I question the green one too. It looks like it has one vane that is too large and too thin for a Peltier Banana- the glass looks off to me too.
-
It's beautiful, Bill. I could look at that all day. I'll bet your dog loves the weather - looks like a furry beast. 🙂 We're expecting our first hard freeze this weekend here in west-central Indiana, and I'm looking forward to it!
-
That is a Moss Agate on the left but it's hard to tell if it's Akro or Master from these views. The other two are Alley Agates.
-
That's a good looking display, Art. And I agree with your assessment of this person's box-making skills too - a wide selection that appear to be well done for the most part.
-
That's a nice looking collection, Bill!
-
@cheese That's a nice selection Vitros and cool Heatons too, but I am really digging that white banana-style in green glass - very unusual, IMO.
-
And they are the nice bright saturated colors you see in those older Vitros too - nice marbles, for sure.
-
Cool marble, it looks like a Bennington type to me. Some of them have that shiny, almost iridescent metallic-looking, glaze that is quite different than the more typical ones. At least, I think that's what I'm seeing here. 🙂
-
If you look at the first pic you can see that the green up on the right hand side actually originates below the seam you're showing - it should be laying just to the right of that red ribbon below the seam., then you've got a pretty typical "flip-flop" pattern, even though the ribbons are wandering all over the place.
-
Looks like a patch to me, or maybe a really weird Peltier - not JABO, IMO.
-
I have some huge Asian Cat's Eyes that look really similar, and I have seen similar looking and sized Cat's Eyes (Taiwan) packaged by Shackman in "Six Jumbo Kate Greenaway Marbles" boxes. They also packaged some (Japan) in "Super Deluxe Jumbo Multicolor Marbles" boxes but I think they were mostly single-color ones.
-
Just a little cross-through . . . a great color combination though, IMO.
-
Maybe an Orange Dragon but kinda weak color-wise.
-
The "Score!" thread. Post your exciting finds here...

Jumpin' Jimminy' man, that's a sweet marble! -
No kidding - that big one in the back (I think it was 3/4") was a killer in hand.
-
With that bling, I'd say almost certainly. Although it might be one of Dave or Sammy's newer post-JABO marbles.
-
Here's a few Bill posted . . . just for reference.
-
Gotta be a little careful because there's a newer MK that's a pretty fair imposter too.
-
Cool marble - kind of odd. It appears to have way more than it's fair share of white, and it's hard to tell, but it does kind of look like a crude folded "pontil". How would you classify it?
-
A few big fat Peltier Bananas . . .
