Hi all ! I got a lot of 230 marbles today.About 60 of them were filler pieces, but the rest were nice . I think the price was reasonable but I'm not sure if we are allowed to discuss price here. Most all the marbles are in excellent condition . Could you confirm that the first group I separated out are Akro Agate popeyes ? Would some from the next group be Akro Agate patches ? Thanks for any help, more to come...

No, not yet ..it’s at an estate coming up , I’d like to see it in person first. I’m very interested though and hopefully I will get it . I am going to another one tomorrow and hope to come up with a good haul ! It looks promising and will post on the boards here’s If I get something. Fingers crossed xx

Thanks Bumbebee , I had a few of those when I was a kid , I remember I had one that was orange/black/red . I must collect a few, they strike a chord in me !

Thanks for posting ! That would look great if you had the clear models. What are some of the black-banded marbles called in the bottom half of your right tray ? They are so cool !

Thanks Steph ! Lots of eye candy in there . I think I see a glazed clay marble in the bottom left near the green swirl in the second pic .

more photos

Hi all ! Someone is selling these about an hour away . I don't have many details yet, but I thought the photos were interesting and they look vintage , plenty of wear and tear . Some look like Peltier Slags ! Can anyone ID anything in this lot ?

Thanks Steph ! That would be so cool !

Thanks Steph for the tips ! Yes you might be right on the Pea ,it's close , but the black is a deep red , Go figure ! I'll post more pics of that one on the i.d. forum , it's nice and the borders are crisp.

those look yummy ! thanks for sharing

Hi all, I picked up this egg yolk colored marble with deep red swirls today , can anyone identify it ? It is most probably vintage . Thankyou for any tips !

Hi all, I recently collected about 70 marbles at a New Jeresy flea market and Antique shop, These were some of the better ones . If anyone sees something out of the ordinary please let me know. I'm pretty confident these are all vintage.

Those are fantastic ! Thanks for sharing

welcome Ingot !

I'm interested to see how this gets identified here , to my inexperienced eyes it looks like a Master marble sunburst. I think I just wanted to participate here lol !

Interesting point , I’ll have to study cutlines of the old fashion style, Thankyou for the tip!

Thankyou Steph ! Those Old fashion Megas are tricky in photos. I hope to be able to distinguish them from vintage when I see a lot like this in-person.

Hi all , would anyone be able to identify the black and white marbles in this lot ? Thankyou for any input !

Ok thanks guys , upon further inspection the one on the left has an unbroken ribbon , or swirl . The one on the right is just an enigma to me but I like it .
