Heads up Newbies…..buy a loupe and don’t get ripped off buying a nice looking marble that’s been polished 🔥 RAR

One last thing. Loupes are awesome when it comes to determining if a marble has been polished. The surface glass will be really smooth. The seams and pontils will be smooth and lose their texture as well. The last thing are the Flea Bites. They will have a sharp edge around them and not have the irregularities around the edges that represent the impact that caused the chip🔥 RAR

Whatta ya know? I got one right🔥 RAR

I love Space Junk🔥 RAR

Not a Mushroom. It’s killer single ribbon Rainbo with a nice twist🔥 RAR

Well good for you guys. I could care less about your negative responses about loupes and what Chuck said.I’m more curious and have fun looking in the Matrix and seeing what’s in there. I like looking at the Lash’s. It was really cool seeing AV on some of the Banana Pelt Cats Eyes I have.If you’re going to buy a Sparkler for $50.00 or more I think you would want to know it doesn’t have any anneal fractures. I can go on and on about the fun you can have with a loupe but I’m going to leave it that. If you want to have fun with a loupe buy one. If not then don’t buy one.🔥 Art.

Swing and a miss 🔥 RAR

Nice Alley 🔥 RAR

Again….you do have a lot of Foreign marbles🔥 RAR

The colors mirror each other at the seams. That’s a MK trait. I think they are new MK’s. They are a bit washed out but I think I might be right🔥 RAR

Definitely HTF ! Lucky you🔥🔥🔥 RAR

Check out my new topic in General 🔥 RAR

Do you know what Lashes are? These are an Akro trait caused by dull cutters. When you see these they are attributed to Akro’s. Not always but I would say 99% of the time it’s an Akro trait.🔥 RAR

Everyone should have one. The 30X really helps to ID AV,bubbles ,kiln brick and anneal fractures 🔥 RAR

Sure am. Get a Jewler’s Loupe and check with the 30X. It really helps to ID bubbles and kiln brick🔥 RAR

Uuuuuugh! Alley 🔥 RAR

Looks like there’s some AV. If so I’m going with Alley🔥 RAR

Probably an Alley. We’ll see what the Wizards have to say🔥 RAR

Long shot! Maybe a Mushroom🔥 RAR

2X 🔥 RAR

What about the Lashes in pic one🔥 RAR🍿

The last Simmering Blue Spruce I saw went for $125. VVHTF🔥 RAR

We need your feedback on the Foreign marbles that are being posted here🔥 RAR

Where in the h$ll are you🔥 RAR

I thought for sure your OP was a Kokomo. MoJo has been MIA for quite sometime now. I consider him to be the best at the Foreign ID’s. I think he lives in the Netherlands. He has an amazing collection of overseas marbles. He’s a great resource here on the Board. I just wish he’d show up. He use to be here every day 🔥 RAR
