This one has me thinking Akro Agate or a slim chance it might be Marble King but I can’t find any examples of it to be sure measures 0.66” inches any help is appreciated.

Two Marbles of One type for ID
Greeneyesgreenthumbs replied to Greeneyesgreenthumbs's topic in Marble I.D.'s
Do furnace marbles have a tendency to fracture? -
As you can see I have two of these they’re really spectacular marbles. Measurements are 0.59” and 0.61” inches diameter. I feel like they could be Peltier. Any input is appreciated. Thank you !
-
I think these are CAC but I get Alley and CAC flames mixed up sometimes. The first one is a transparent base three color that measures 0.66” inches. The second one is a fabulous marble I think it’s CAC or Peltier measuring 0.61” inches. the last one measures 0.68” inches it’s a really nice marble that you could take a hundred pictures of and never get the same shot twice it seems. I think this one may be CAC too. thank you for your time and input.

Thank you very much Akrooka I thought it was Peltier but the colors are different than any Peltier I've seen Then it’s a larger sized Marble which I don’t see many of when it comes to Peltiers. I do appreciate the information. I’m pretty much a collector of Akro, CAC and Vitro only. I’ll sell this Marble and use the money to keep my other Marble ambitions funded.
-
Hello thank you for your time. This marble has a transparent green base glass. Marble measures a good size at 0.70” inches in diameter. Peltier comes to mind when I hold this one in hand but I’m not familiar with this color combo. Any input is appreciated. Thanks

One for ID ? Akro Leopard ?
Greeneyesgreenthumbs replied to Greeneyesgreenthumbs's topic in Marble I.D.'s
Very nice one cheese thanks for the input. -
This one has me thinking Akro But I’m unsure any help is appreciated. Measures 0.61 inches in diameter.
-
Ron I appreciate your input which, as always, helps solidify any marbles ID. Thank you

The Cutline looks very straight for an Alley to me. This one may be an outlier though.
-
Lighting and background are probably the most important thing in taking pictures of marbles. Three point lighting slightly dimmer on the side lights. Also the pictures seem to look better setting back about a foot and zooming in versus getting up close and zooming out.
-
I think it could be Alley to. Camera wise this is my iPhone 7 I just play with the lighting angles and keep the background darker than the marble. Other than that there’s not any special setting or editing other than cropping. Some marbles just like their picture taken. Thank you for the replies and thanks for the compliment on the pictures.

The is a shooter. It measures 0.96” inches in diameter with a base glass in electric orange with swirling white. To me this one has a slag look. Akro? But I don’t think Akro had electric orange only Germans and CAC if I remember correctly. But the size is rather large for a CAC and I’ve never seen a German with this much swirling thick white. So maybe it’s a transparent swirl Alley? Any help is appreciated here. Thank you for your time.

Thank you everyone for sharing. This is great, what fun! For now it’s a mystery. I’m leaning Akro agate. Chuck Makes a great case with the information on Akro and their usage of Av. That’s a really good tidbit to know.
-
So we have votes for Vitro Marble King and Peltier. I was leaning Akro…..the confusion overwhelms me much like trying to order food at night and the drive thru menu light is an after thought to the 17 year olds running the place.

Measures 0.64” inches diameter. Lots of AV and drizzle nice marble but I can’t 100% ID it any help is much appreciated

Are wavy "Lips" a Dead Give Away for a Vitro?
Greeneyesgreenthumbs replied to Marbleized's topic in Marble I.D.'s
I used to think the lips or “v” meant Vitro as well then I bought a few Akro Agates that had Lips too. I was like Oh Lord here I was thinking I had begun to know a few things about marbles and a big fat juicy BAM slapped me…….
-
Thanks y’all. I thought maybe Akro on the bottom one because of the base glass that would be less common for a vitro maybe? Then the wavy v had me thinking vitro but I’ve seen Akros with that as well. I really struggle with Akro vs Vitro sometimes. I really appreciate the input.
-
Again thanks for the time and effort to help me out with the ID on these Marbles. What I think is Akro, Peltier Green Rebel, Akro, Alley but I’m not certain. Thanks
-
Hi thanks for your time. I would like to know if these marbles are Alley Agates. Any input is appreciated.
-
Agreed I think it’s a modern Champion Swirl with the satin finish I have about 50 of them I gave a couple bucks for them and felt like I got a fair deal.
-
The last one looks like a modern champion but having just the one pic I can’t be 100% I know they made swirls in three different shades of purple maybe more I’ve only seen three though. theres lighter purple almost pinkish like yours with a satin finish and two shades getting progressively darker purple each with the same satin finish. The first one is a gamer they’re difficult to ID and don’t show very well being solid colored so not many people seek them out. I’m not sure on the rest but I think at least one of them is Vacor JMO like you I too struggle somewhat with swirls especially using pictures to investigate them vs having them in hand
-
Thank you for your time. Measures 0.54” inches in diameter I feel like the colors are Akro but I’m not 100% sure would love any input you have on this marble. Thanks
-
Thanks y’all. Now that being said, would you say the yellow red one is a hybrid all red? Same with the turquoise red one?
-
I feel like these are Akro but Peltier Patches come to mind when I look at the purple white blue one. I’m unsure here, any input is appreciated thank you for your time.
