Cool, video worked for me. I can see the sparkle. More often than not, it's incidental in marbles and some people collect examples based on eye appeal alone (similar to examples with incidental debris, oven brick, large bubbles, "UV POP"list goes on and on.)

One more for tonight. :-) Peltier Cubscout?
I'llhavethat1 replied to DRCtrent's topic in Marble I.D.'s
did I miss the size for the OP? Or am I just not seeing it now? I'm wondering how it would compare in hand to these colorsl -
Finding any marble unexpected is a good thing (to me anyway). Marble looks like a well used Peltier Rainbo. Production sizes ranged frim under 1/2" to about an inch, so this is at the larger end of the scale, but fairly common. Probably around 70 years old and made in the good ol' USA.

Is white a lifesaver flavor? Pineapple? I always associated lifesaver with red green and yellow.
-
Some would call it a Mist. It's nice. Not very common (I'm trying to remember if I've got one). If a true peewee even better.

Is it not a shooter Cosmic Rainbow?

Pelt Rainbo. Attractive colors and pattern for a Rainbo. -
Other than red, I imagine Vaseline glass would appeal to certain collectors. Deep purple/black or shrunken cores cased in clear also.

Veiligglas VS Hopf - information about Wirepulls
I'llhavethat1 replied to TheVacorFan's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
My contribution for comparison sake. Of note: plastic round board instead of wooden. As far as where the marbles were made? Hard to say. Much like swirls and catseyes were made in the USA by multiple companies, it's entirely possible there was more than one Euro manufacturer cranking out (somewhat generic) wirepulls as well. -
What's the size by the way? Looks like it's bigger, probably over an inch but less than 1-1/4" is my guess.

That blue slag has a tight '9', nice example. I'm thinking MFC

For the love of exotic hybrids! Vitro help needed!

Is it not a folded up Pelt Rainbo. -
out of all of them? Maybe the white and green one.
-
This came to mind when I saw the OP But some important questions about the OP marble, did I miss the size? And it does kinda look like Oxblood?
-
The top middle I consider to be 'Imperial'. They all have varying degrees of translucency. Or maybe now I'm confusing Imperial with Ringer. arg.
-
^agree. And in this thread I learned about the newer look-alikes.
-
I'm terrible with these but Carnelian was the first name that came to me (now I need to go search).
-
It's authentic, not contemporary. Leroy did some work on it (I know, I know) but it is an eye-catcher for sure.
-
Nice example. A little sparse on the green compared to most
