cac or akro? 5/8"

Thank you.

cac? 21/32"

I can go with Akro. Yours looks like this one. First thought maybe Vitro. Don't know why I typed Masters Have never seen any pics of Akro with threads like that.

Thanks

5/8+ and has more "gills" than some fish

These from flea market in FL though I moved here 10yrs. ago fr mid-Ohio valley

Colors and patches have me confused! 5/8"

Are these Akros? 11/16 & 11/16+

Thanks Ric

Thank you. Have some Alley that look like cousins so I'll stick them in there. Appreciate the help.

I guess I didn't understand your question. It's the white are that fluoresces. It's a translucent marble but I guess the marble "guru" would call it a transparent base.

Don't do that I'll shoot a blacklight one

Here are some more views on the small one.

no; it's true to the photo

yes only small one; white (fixed the answer)

Just curious about these 3 swirls. Look familiar but can't nail them down. Any help appreciated.

Sizes(L-R): 19/32(fluorescent); 21/32; and 11/16. No seams

Thanks

ok thanks

That is what it feels and looks like, a smoothed out flake. Here are other views.

Have never had a polished marble pointed out to me. Can you tell from this image if this one has been polished?

Here is the one Steph is referring to: 29/32 with a cobalt blue base.

Here are mine, while still slightly lighter than in hand there is quite a difference.

The coloration is why I asked. Side by side the "wiger" is darker than the tiger, but still not a definite red. Not color blind but kinda "color dumb" after a while the brain starts to question what is seen.

Thanks for all of you input. I've learned a lot. Now if you would go to Marble ID and give me an opinion on my 10/3 post, I'd be appreciative. 50 some views and no op's. I did use deodorant that day.

Thanks

Yep, love a good wasp....make sure to use a good strong light as some of them have a blue aventurine, very few but I got a nice surprise once. How close in hand is the true color on that one. Does look a little orangy but I like it, and know how hard it is not to wash the red out with light trying to get a pic.

Here are 2 more pics. Pretty much same look in hand.

2 peltier nlrs. Is the top one a black widow/wasp and bottom a tiger or would you say both are tigers?

thanks

I got the black widow from America Machine Made Marbles bottom of page 132: .... Wasp is incorrect name for a Black Widow. So I put both since I did not know which name the various marble gurus used. Evidently you are not one to use black widow.

Thanks.

ive seen the book a few times but the full set is neat....vitro made some for hom back in the day..when they was in parkersburgh and washington they wanted the bigger marbles and vitro had a machine on loan from hom that wasnt included in the sale to jabo...the machine went to mid atlantic then to england...i think those big cosmic rainbows were made on the hom machine...hom got marbles from most of the west virginia companies...the complete set is kewl tho....

Thanks Steve, That helps a lot
