One of my favorite marbles. Great glass, overall composition, and condition.

Maybe take a pic of them both side by side to show the difference. I'm confident on the op marble being Vacor even if the base glass has a green tint. Might not be the patriot type but I see Vacor strongly in the ribbon construction and glass.

I take it as some green contaminate got in it. A chunk fell off the side of the tank or whatever. Or it might be the start or end of a run before the green started coming out or after it ended. We will probably never know.

Very hard to say with little to no traits to go by. Probably considered a game marble.

I see Akro.

Yes, usually called a superman. This type is from St. Mary's and usually fractured. There is also one from Sistersville that is much harder to find.

Wait... those are pics of the same marble? i thought the second group was to show the difference between a Pelt and the OP. The later pic is definitely a Pelt. I can't find a similarity in the pattern, I think they are two different marbles.... ??? *think*

Called a vacor Liberty

Some more Alleys to look through

Yes, Vacor.

That's what's sad to you? What about this: Someone who has a beat up marble and asks the most knowledgeable community what it is. While receiving multiple answers and debate over who made it, the person grabs the first mention of a high end maker and runs to list it at prices 4-500 times higher than what it would be if it was what they claimed in an attempt to scam the same community that's helping him. And the person doesn't even know what it is yet. That didn't stop them from advertising it as such and putting a BIN on it for an immediate sale. Then claim that they are conducting an "experiment" on us when their greed is exposed. We have IDed a lot of marbles for you, a service that you profit from, yet we ask for nothing in return. We do, however, appreciate the info given here not being taken out of context and contorted to rip off the community we are part of.

CAC on 1 through 7 of these posts.

Yessir

Agreed.

Yep, nice size. This seems to be a common color combo for CACs in this size. Not a common marble, just that several bigger CACs have this combo.

Correct

Clockwise spin on some here, just pics at my disposal. The MCR/MCS types do seem to spin counter clockwise more than clockwise but the other pelts seem to be more 50/50.

There are plenty. If you understand how the marbles are made, you can see that the spin can occur either way. Look at all the Pelt ram's heads... they have clockwise AND counter clockwise spin on the same marble even.

Peltiers and any others can spin clockwise or counterclockwise and even both. It's not a useful ID trait.

I think it's a swirl but it's messed up where it spun one way on the rollers and hard to know for sure. Best guess to me is a late Ravenswood.

It is. Price reduced to 5K now.

And it shows up on Ebay for $20,000 as a CAC marble as soon as the possibility is mentioned?

What size is it? Transparent green base guinea cobra? With strandy filaments from one end of the ribbon to the other, bleeding transparent colors? I don't see it.

Vitro Tiger Eye was my first impression but... is it a little bigger than 5/8? I think it's an Akro.

I think it's a cool Master.
