Oh, thats the stuff...nice!

Nice hand gathered slag, red is a tougher color to find in that size.

Mix of (mostly) American machine made marbles. Probably 1950's +/- 20years. A few Vitro, looks like at least one Akro corkscrew and a Peltier marble. They are on rhe more common side of things, made suring the heyday of USA marble production when they were being cranked out of rhe machines by the box car load. Hope this helps and Welcome to the site!

CAC to me

Looking to confirm Greiner, single gather?

Not the best pics but I think I see what you're thinking with that marble. -
I've also seen them referred to as "Clouds", "Balloons" and less arguably "First-of-cane". "Single Pontil" is another. Lol, those Peltier name haters must get a kick out of old onionskins.
-
Missed this one earlier. If nobody mentioned it yet, looks like what some people would call "End-of-cane" if it only has the one pontil. Can't quite tell from the pics but the pattern leans me that way. If so it's a bit different than your average onionskin.

3/4"+ fat solid core.
-
Top= Latticino swirl, bottom = Clambroth. Both handmade in Germany 100+ years ago
-
What is your friends question?
-
Pretty sure this is Foreign (to the USA) I've found similar in batches from UK, Canada etc.
-
thanks for clarifying. I'm trying to remember if I've ever seen one like that, so large. Unusual for sure.
-
Do you have a picture of the smaller "coreless" type swirl you're looking for a 2"-er of? That will help me visualize.. as the term could mean different things to different people
-
Does it taste like candy? Might be a gobstopper or sucker or something.

Very nice 11/16" Slag Not Your Normal Slag

I see what appears to be a handgathered pattern and what could be a termination point...so I'm in definite agreement with what Rics saying -
No need to apologize, ask away! Questions are how we all learn so in no way would I discourage you or fellow collectors from asking. 7/8" is the size. Don't worry, Lol can also be nervous laughter as I also hold Chad G's opinion in high regard!

Looks vintage handgathered to me. Lots of companies made these before manufactures became more automated with machine made marbles. Most of the identifying detail will be where the cut off point is, but even then can be hard to agree on company.. or even country of origin.
-
Lol sure. Or you can go ahead and ask and I'll do my best to alleviate your concerns 😀

Some chunky Lutz and a couple Huge bubbles
-
Looks like the "spidery" cut-off from a foreign transitional.
-
Better pictures would help, this looks like a picture of a monitor showing a picture of a marble...too much resolution lost. But obviously not a Pelt bloody Mary if that's what you're asking.
-
Pink is 1", blue is slightly larger at 1-1/32"
-
They look legit vintage from here. There are some unusual looking combos that would benefit from closer pics as mentioned above. Some details are hard to make out from damage With regard to the term "end of day", some people call the fancier/splotchy ones? Maybe someone else will chime in..
-
Thought these two went together well
-
Hard to tell from those photos (maybe even in hand) but I'm not seeing German or Navarre. It does look like an early handgathered slag tho. Possibly MFC. UNLESS there is a melted pontil 5 o'clock position of third pic down. Then I'm going with Navarre being a strong contender
