I got about 50 or so Ultras from Bermar back in the day, but I'm not sure if the speckled ones fit or not. The only ones I know of were speckled mainly with lutz. Steph's right about the oxblood - there are some really nice oxblood marbles in the Ultra run. But mainly they glow. Hit them with a UV light and they fire up a hot green . . . also a peculiar foggy turquoise color . . .

Whoah! Tai rides again!

I keep most of my marbles in vintage cigar boxes. Just seems natural, somehow . . .

For those of you who might not see the notice posted on another website, Roger Browse, the Canadian collector (of transitionals in particular), died July 18, 2015, after a long illness (ALS).

OK, guinea half confessions. I have six, two each of cobalt, amber, and colorless. I'll have to check them tonight, but as best as I remember mine are like migbar's . . . (hi Mike!)

Galen? Hansel? BuckEye? Etc.?

Great idea!

What he ^^^ said. In the photographs, it does not look like a genuine guinea. And the photographs are all we have to go on.

I like it too . . .

Nice marbles. It just sounded like she was saying "Christensen bricks" like you would say "Christensen guinea." Like they were made by the same company. Not making that distinction is a pet peeve of mine. It's so misleading.

12 Christensen bricks? Do you mean M. F. Christensen?

I finally got the second part . . .

Just a plain ole Alley swirl . . .

That's a good price.

I haven't seen one with that dark a brown, but that doesn't necessarily mean anything . . .

Yep. A Glitterball. Like yours. The one that used to be mine. Still wondering how that happened. What? Wait! Oh right, the purple cork and those furnace marbles and . . .

Love Kris Parke. 'Nother Alloway, but not mine (too big, thank the marble gods)

Wow! That's great -- congrats!

Wow. And here it is again. Probably whoever bought it returned it. Or sent it to this seller for resale in hopes of recouping some money. I bought marbles from this seller on occasion, way back when, and never had a problem. Average marble knowledge, decent middle-of-the-road marbles, more-or-less in the condition described. But I haven't bought anything from her in a few years. She may not know it's not . . . as described.

Contemporary.

Struggling to breathe after that board full of Joseph's Coats!

Yup, I'm like 50% - 50% on that question! The other view (little help)

I can't think what else this might be, right? Newish or newer MK? I just liked the colors.
