Agreed, Master brushed patches. If pics might help you with them, here are some of a lot I got not long ago, mostly brushed patches.

CAC all the way for me. You can get a nice alley or two for it I'm sure. Just not from me , I like the alleys too.

Thanks. It's not really rough to feel. I've seen 3, 2 are in my collection. I'm sure there are more. A photogenic Easter egg with bright robin egg blue

CAC crossed my mind too. Not sure.

Heh, Steph you said the same thing going through my mind as well. The Kokomo ID always comes up when you see that pinkish red. I've seen it on others I consider to be Pelts though, and one side of this marble is very pelty to me. The other with the pinkish-red could go either way IMO. Given the one side that is all Pelt to me and the very few marbles made by Koko in comparison to Peltier, I'm good with calling it Pelt.

Pelt Tiger IMO.

Odd. Does the black backlight dark green to amber? If so, could be a weird Pelt bruiser.

I really like that one. Nice ruffle or curtain effect in that white. I think nice Alley too.

I was thinking Ravenswood and Champion for what it's worth. .672 would be too large for Heaton IMO.

Vacor was my first thought as well.

I agree, probably JABO.

JABOs I recognize pattern first usually on the classics, this one I'm not positive of but it looks like a single fold and glass that fits, so without having it in hand that's my guess. The pincher has the clear glass with the white and color on the outside and the opening at the seams a little, I think that one is a pretty safe ID.

1 may be a JABO classic 2 is Peliter rainbo 3 is Wales pincher

And a snakeskin metallic helmet

Love the tiger colored blackie in the top middle. Especially nice. Some Neon Conquerors. 5/8", 3/4", and 15/16"

Lol... nice CACs, sorry about the incidental damages

Thanks Ric, nice bunch of superiors! Here are some patel hybrid cats.

One of the exotics that needed special attention

Hey Rooster, I recognize that last one. I'm the guy who IDed it for you Here are a few exotics

The Heaton Red Baron. This one is one of the first named types but like the Razzle Dazzle, it is very rare. At the time I took the photo of the group of 3, these were the only 3 known to us. I found one during my first Heaton Dig a couple years back and it was the only one known until I found 2 more in September 2020. Maybe more will turn up in time. They are very white base, whiter than the usual Heaton and more on par with CAC or Ravenswood whites. The red is ruby red transparent. The black looks black except in places if you can find where it thins enough, you can tell it's very very dark brown color.

The Heaton Razzle Dazzle. Ron named this one, these were only found in a small spot, only a few known. I haven't found one in my buckets yet unfortunately. Loads of AV and a UV reactive base. Top shelf marble from Heaton. These are Ron's marbles, I took the photos at his house back in September. And here is some of the AV Vitrolite used to make these marbles:

I think the first one is an old Alley. In this color combo, they aren't very busy pattern-wise. The other two are JABO IMO.

Asian imported.

One of the easiest ways to me is to put it under a long fluorescent light like a shop light and roll it around. The reflection of the light will bend and wiggle as it rolls and the surface irregularities change the reflection. Even the nicest wet mint machine mades don't have perfect surfaces that will reflect without distortion. A polished marble will not change reflection as it rolls around.
