    Akro ?

    I had this under the loupe for awhile today. The base glass is definitely clear. I wasn’t sure at first.

    CAC ?

    I’m glad your idling. I’m stalled out in reverse. It’s not a melted pontil.
  3. I think I’m onto something here.
  4. So there go. Another Homemade Pelt name. I want a April Fool’s Day Pelt. 🤪

    Akro ?

    No kiln brick. All bubbles.

    CAC ?

    Yes. Second picture from right to left shows the purple go from dark transparent purple to a semi transparent purple. The thin ribbon is what has me stumped. A blue dominated purple. I wish my pics were better to show the blue the thin ribbon.

    Akro ?

    I’m 99% sure this is an Akro. Is it a Pop Eye patch? It’s 3/4.
  8. Are all the Pelt slags Onyx or is there another category?
  9. Hunting for agates in Duluth in the spring with my Uncle Bud got me hooked for life. Finding out there where “agate marbles?”Game on 🚀
  10. Does anyone have examples of their blue and clear based MCS ?
  11. So when did the Spiral turn into a Corkscrew? If I have been miss informed about this ? Have Corkscrews always been Corkscrews and are truly different from a Spiral ?
  12. Pelts are without a doubt the main marbles that are attached to the name game. A Pop Eye is a Pop Eye. It’s not a Jiffy Pop. If you asked an Akro Salesman you wanted to see a corkscrew they would help you open your bottle of wine. Why? If you asked them to show you a Spiral ? They would show you a marble.
  13. It should be named an Illinois or Ottawa. Keep it local.
  14. Didn’t Brian Graham make some chocolate ox blood marbles about 15 years ?
  15. This one is from the farm in Minnesota.
