Gorgeous marble. Good luck!

Hi. Welcome. Thoughts? First thought: That's a very high starting price for four pounds of marbles. [Edit: I see that you had a very low starting price, not the $585 that the bid is now at. Sorry about that confusion.] Second thought: The steelie shouldn't be stored with them, and should not be allowed to touch them during shipping. Third thought: There are some _very_ nice marbles there. However, you'll probably have better luck reaching your monetary target if you sell some of the nicer ones separately, with good individual pictures so that people can make informed judgments about condition. There's a big difference in value between truly mint marbles and those in near mint condition. Hope this helps!

Love your fill-in-the-blank, Galen. Well-posed question.

Tell us more!

Odd shade but it looks like a Moss Agate to me. The swirly kind.

Akro.

Such as the Hoover and World's Fair ones?

Mislukkeling is a good word too ... I could say it without anyone knowing what I'm saying to them! *wink*

definitely cute

30's and 40's is a realistic date estimate. I think I see one 1950's or 1960's marble on the bottom. There are some Peltier Rainbos. Some Alley swirls. A couple of Akro corkscrews. The slightly newer (but still old) one at the bottom is a Vitro Blackie. (The black and blue one on a white base.)

So simple yet so pretty

Okay, now I'm hungry.

Winnie, L is for "Loser".

I'm gonna guess Modern. Still very cool.

A vitro with the color clumped together on the surface?

Those dark swirls are sharp. Deep and rich.

LOL ... the video was funny but what brought on the California crazies post?

Pretty!

Hiya. Vitro cage style cat-eye. 1960's to 1980's give or take.

They both look thick and rich and ox-blood-y to me.

Everlasting Gobstoppers!

Hello. Welcome. Could be from the 1960's. I wouldn't guess more than a dime apiece in value. Though I hate the thought of that since brand new marbles are worth that much, right? All-Reds are nice basics to have in your collection. ... or something you can give to a child without worrying about him ruining their value.

Fun! Good luck!

Here's my hideous gray (and orange) single-seamer.
