  1. Yeah they're sulphides, I left the link so everyone can take a look, their even identifiable for once.
  2. Sounds like somebody quartered their collection ?? Gone for an hour, had to update my PC !! All fixed now (I hope)
  3. ....... I would hazard a guess but that's exactly what it would be is a guess ..... Ok, I'll step in it and say some form of Vitro ?? The end better come soon because I'm pretty sure I'm wrong !! Second is foreign ??
  4. x2, Vacor Clownfish LINK : https://www.billes-en-tete.com/liste_billes.php?lang=en
  5. .................. more butter please ......... Mmmm
  6. Man David, where do ya keep comin up w/ all those I must be in the wrong part of the country or somethin ??
  7. @ just under 7/8ths with furnace brick all over in it and no av. a htf Alley but not a green giant for the lack of any av. Guess you have to be sure it's av and not just excess colorant or oven brick, can get a little sticky but the parameters are there to qualify or disqualify it as being one i.e. "size & the presence of actual av." Also the OP looks more Blue than green ?? maybe a Blue Giant if av is present and the size requirement is met. The "Blue Giant" is much more rare than the Green Giant is, either way a very HTF mib ...
  8. I have Vacor serpents that are the exact same color as a Pelt & visa versa so "don't" go by color alone, Her are 2 Peltier NLR Supermen with the classic ribbon and seam pattern. Pelts can also come w/ a swirling pattern (yin-yang) so time & experience are your best friends. (L to R) 5/8ths & just a hair short of 11/16ths. Excluding size difference these 2 are nearly twins w/ only a few slight differences in the ribbon structure.
  9. I see 5 marbles with # 4 being Akro, the only one that isn't a Pelt.
  10. Check out the backspin and English they put on those mibs, "Thumbs of steel" True "Destroyers"
  11. A great number of these have transparent clear marbles in them (i.e., not sulphides), it's far less frequent to run into a fully intact set like this It appears these rolled as they were moved, accounting for the heavy wear on the mibs. Not positive these were for a piano stool ?? A great number were 3 legged, though I did see on w/ four. At any rate a nice set "@ least to me" out of the norm just something different to look @ LINK : https://www.ebay.com/itm/165430807566?hash=item268471cc0e%3Ag%3ACb0AAOSwdVxiVgmv&mkevt=1&mkcid=
  12. I'm from Oregon and we say Or-re-gun
  13. I think this one may be an Alley William ?? Can't be for sure on the other two without clear shots of the seams ??
  14. I heard "Pelt feather slag" long before I knew them as "onyx" Here's a so called Rooster tail (by the way Rick, your pix are lookin great !!)
  15. Man I sure wish I lived a couple thousand miles closer !! Nice haul Ron, Love the Alleys and the Germans, ah I always box myself in, I love em all !!
  16. Hmm ?? I'm leaning away from Akro !!
  17. The Chicken wire is actually what it was made w/ it really surprised me !! The thing is almost indestructible, I bet I could run it over w/ ,my truck and it would still function. I love it, takes me back to playing "Skee-Ball" at the fair when I was a kid "winner, winner, every one's a winner" with the smell of popcorn and beer sausages wafting through the air, sweeet memories !!
