  1. I fixed the pictures, I'm not sure what happened. Sorry about the titles, wasn't sure what to title them. I'll come up with different names going forward. Thank you very much for your replies to my threads. Sorry for my ignorance but how can I tell which are modern compared to older ones? At one time my dad had told me these marbles were around when he was a child (he was born in 1955) but my grandma would never let him play with them, so I was surprised that one of your replies said they were modern (I'm not questioning your response by the way). I read you should look for a pontil, but I also read that in some cases they may have been ground and polished so they may be hard to see.
  2. I don't know what these 3 are. It's hard to see in the pictures but the last one has green swirls inside. I'm not sure how to get a better picture.
  3. I haven't been able to identify these. There's white and the rest of it is clear, I'm not sure why it looks yellow in the last picture. The last one is a bit different than the first 2, the white kind of looks like a C inside.
  4. I have about 20 of these so I chose a few that represent the design and colors. I have no idea what these are. The black is very shiny and the ones that look yellow are much closer to orange, not sure why they look yellow. Also the white is closer to gray.
  5. I think I've identified the first one correctly as a Lutz but I cannot figure out the other 2. It's hard to tell in the picture but the last one is translucent about 2/3 of it (the bottom in the first picture and the side facing the camera in the second picture).
  6. I know these are all clay which basically have no value. I was wondering if anyone knew why the second one has a hole all the way through it?
  7. I'm pretty sure I've identified these correctly as Bennington, and from what I've read they have little value. I'm surprised how shiny the glaze still is on the second one after all these years, doesn't look like it was ever played with.
  8. Hello, my name is Chad. I inherited a farm from my dad, which at one time was owned by my great-great grandfather who emigrated from Germany in the mid 1800's. Amongst the contents were several hundred marbles in jars. I know absolutely nothing about marbles and have been trying to research them online but have been unable to find a website that has enough decent pictures to determine what I have as far as maker, age, collectability and value. I came upon this site and hope I could get some help from the members if I posted pictures in the ID section. I think I've identified a couple, but please excuse my ignorance. Thank you in advance.
