Transparent base Swirl marble here measures 0.59” Inches in diameter. I appreciate your time and input here.
-
So I was somewhat headed in the right direction here. I appreciate your input on these two Cheese.

Purely a guess but it has an Alley look to me. Nice images

The first marble shown looks like a Peltier type 4 Broken Corkscrew. But the Oxblood landed this one in my Akro Agate box. Recently I noticed the seams on this marble and became unsure of its true identity. Any input is appreciated. The second marble looks like a Ravenswood but again I’m not 100% so any agreement here would help me put this one in its correct place. Thanks for y’all’s time and sharing of knowledge.

I toss anything that’s fractured chipped or less than Very Good Plus condition. I also toss polished marbles. If given a choice between played with or polished condition I choose played with. Polished marbles are blurry, feel way to slick and place the marble into a non original state. I’m extremely picky about a marbles condition. As I’ve said before, one of my main reasons to collect marbles is their perceived value. It’s an investment to me. So anything that detracts from value is waste basket bound or sling shot ammo. Nothing shoots straighter from a sling shot than a marble. I made one that will shoot farther than I can hit a golf ball with my driver. I can pound a golf ball off the tee. I have over 25,000 marbles. I would love to show them off to you. That’s sorta my issue with marbles is a lack of interested others around me to show them off to.

I’m one of those guys who thinks asking for directions is sacrilege. Especially with my wife riding shotgun. I’ve got an image to uphold after all, ya feel me? That being said, asking for help with marble identification is akin to asking for directions in my mind. Now that I’ve destroyed that barricade and put effort towards resolving the origins of a few mystery marbles I feel humbled a bit and less like a broken compass owner. This empowering feeling has me wanting to break out some of my bigger heavy hitting mystery marbles for help. I have a group of same style marbles I’ve been attempting to identify for over two years. I’m about to throw the entire laundry basket in the ring and get y’all’s opinion on these. Im serious when I say thanks to all of y’all for your kindness and willingness to help me. Without that feeling of being welcome this poor Vitro would be in a Peltier box and I would have the south’s largest collection of copperheads and CAC Swirls. Later today I’m going to try and get these really cool marbles checked out and hopefully identified. I just hope the Jabo birds don’t start singing their dime box song at me.

Ok, man I wish I could get the colors right on these pictures. I may tinker with a few different backgrounds. This has a really nice blue to green to white fade that really is nice. Thanks for y’all’s input. I have trouble even identifying this marbles seams it’s just one of those

Looks Peltish to me what do the pros here have to say? I appreciate your input. Measures 0.64” Inches In Diameter

I think this marble is a Peltier Rainbo Copperhead. I do however, need a bit of consensus if you will. Am I right? Am I wrong? For a comparison I’ve included pictures from the Peltier Website (last 2 pictures) link below to the source of last 2 pictures. https://www.peltiermarbles.info/rare

I Love transparent Akro Agate Corkscrews, Snakes, Augers, Spirals and ingots of all colors. I’m always on the hunt for these.
-
Would this be considered to be a Bifurcated Rainbo?

Looks like a Rainbo Translucent might be considered an Antifreeze ? I have a similar one with green transparent base glass. -
I think so as well.
-
To me this Marble has the appearance of a Rainbo Marble with AV and not a National Line Rainbo Marble. I’ll sit back and see what others say.
-
Wow Nice Rainbo Peltier Here! Harder to find colors. I likey
-
I’m totally ok with this being an awesome Peltier Rainbo
-
I have a couple Chsmpions line this but they all seem to lack deep diving ribbons and the chartreuse coloring but I do see some similarity.

Thank you everyone for your thoughts and the great information on these marbles. I’ve been looking vigorously for look a likes to compare these both to. I found another Peltier Rainbo Citrus Liberty that looks very close to the first one. After being pointed towards Ravenswood I furthered this idea and gathered my Ravenswood boxes and found a few more with this color scheme. I couldn’t locate any Champion or other WV companies in my sample sizes who worked with this color scheme. Again thanks to you all! -Dan
