Ruby Bee Liberty Christmas Tree Spiderman Bumble Bee and Zebra are all Pelt names, some borrow and use them to describe Akro's which only adds to the name confusion. Agree W Melissa, I'd stick to the manufacturer name unless you have one like the Indian Blanket which is specific to Akro, just my opinion though.

still not showing

yes, corks, i think they're called snakes

Not getting German here, I magged them also and they look like a newer manufacturer type to me, not sure who though
-
yes yours is a moonie type IMO, several companies made moonie (opalescent) type glass, not just Akro & Christensen, I never collected either so just had examples moonie types laying around. Have to be in hand for me and even then I'm no moonie expert. To my knowledge an Akro moonie has to have fish eyes as akroorka says like a flintie as I believe one is.

Caged solid core, what's the size ?? I see one bubble pop and 2 fleas, otherwise a pretty clean marble. Unfinished pontils and on both ends helps me date it to between 1870 or so and 1910. The size is probably around 11/16ths, just guessing though, most of these were made by the Germans for the English gameboard market, the brighter colors also help date it. Dollars to doughnuts it was part of a gameboard set at one time.

no, they are worth a little more than your average cat. certainly worth collecting, or trading, yeah I'd keep it, some people collect nothing but, good trading stock fo you. They are not all that common, like a metallic pelt Rainbo or something, a manufacture defect but a sought after one.
