Glad you got your lighting situation figured out Jim, excellent base reaction pix. I had a similar problem a while back, it was my uv flashlight it didn't show anything on over half the mibs I tried it on, then when I tried my blacklight tube "wham" mibs that weren't showing any reaction @ all lit up like Christmas trees. Now I use my 3 foot tube all the time or a small 6 inch handheld tube. Don't know if you had the same problem or not ??

This link comes into agreement w/ your ace definition Steph (& so do I) a rare bird indeed. As far as fires second pic of an onyx I ID'd it above, lost in the flurry I guess ?? I'm tryin, just certain thing I get stuck on stupid .... .... after so many years my hard drive brain get's stuck in second gear. I like the "mibology" term .... P.S. We'll probably end up here again if I don't learn how to shift and get my Akronaughts license ?? LINK :: https://www.allaboutmarbles.com/viewtopic.php?t=45347

Personally I think some made it, no real way to tell !! Just like any dug marbles some will be in perfect mint shape & others, well you know. The red in both the Superman and the Indian blanket was transparent & notorious for having surface fractures i.e. incompatible w/ the base glass. Maybe @wvrons will chime in later tonight ?? There's a word for it but for the lifame I can't remember it right now ??

Dope !! Is that a steelie AKA ball bearing, next to those big limeades ?? If so give it a huck, no way to tell if it was sold as a marble or a ball bearing, both came from the same place and are deadly to glass marbles. The only one's I'd keep are the hollow ones, and even then they'd have to be separated from the glass. Solid ball bearings were packaged and sold as marbles, if you have them in the orig. packaging yes worth a little but separately "0" LINK :: https://marbleconnection.com/topic/7389-steelies/#comment-69909 Collectable Steelies ; LINK :: https://marbleconnection.com/topic/26739-steelies/ LINK :: https://www.marblecollecting.com/marble-reference/online-marble-id-guide/other-non-glass-materials/

Yes, the one on the left in the last pic is Vitro, I would've missed it to if ya didn't say anything. Nice display Brother !!

The two I have pictured don't have fractures either but the majority do, just like the majority of Superman corks. I had to go through dozens before I found some in minty shape w/o fractures and that hadn't been polished, I did keep one that was polished because it was so big.
