-
Yeah buddy "Happy new year Brother" may everyone be Blessed as we enter into the new year.
-
Thanks for posting the pix Craig, never in a million years would I have guessed some of those as being Akro !!
-
"Happy Akro Friday" One of my favorite Silver Oxbloods, not a giant at just over 5/8ths but a nice ox pattern w/ some ox diving into the base glass in several different places.
-
I'm thinkin Ric's is a banded coreless ?? I believe the "Cornhusk" has to be the appropriate colors i.e. amber base glass & yellow stranded bands resembling the looks of it's namesake a "Cornhusk" Ric's marble

One more for this Thursday. A 1.5" four panel onionskin w/ a single faceted pontil on one end, melted smooth on the other. So I'm guessing also an earlier made mib. Clean except for an asmade dimple seen at the top of the first pic and a few asmade creases, I wish it had more of what appears to be black.

Talk about VVHTF, both the boards and the marbles !! One or two mibs is good but two full sets is unreal
-
Nice mibs Bill !!
-
"Happy Thüringen Thursday" A nice clean caged divided core, halfway between 1 & 47/64ths a 1 & 3/4". One ground & Faceted pontil and the other end melted almost completely smooth w/ no visible pigtail. Going on the single faceted pontil on one end & the other melted I'm guessing an earlier make somewhere between 1850 & 1880 for production.

A link w/ a lunchbox Ron has, I think Bill M. (mibcapper) has a couple also but not sure ?? Scroll almost to the bottom for a few pix of one, a huge marble, as the true Jolly Roger is also. Dug but very, very rare. LINK : https://www.allaboutmarbles.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=20591&p=164477&hilit=lunch+box#p164477

A definite Alley
-
Not positive Art ?? Maybe an Alley swirl ? I wish they would show both sides of that one in the pix !! From what I can decipher from the other pix the one below is the other side of the mib in the calipers in pic 8, so I'm gonna go with "Alley" though it's not in the description given either !!
-
I seen those last night, yea buddy, I like em all !!
-
" Happy West Virginia Wednesday " A favorite Alley swirl
-
Odd is good !! Loaded is the word
-
One seam = Miller, 2 seams or more NLR, size is of no consequence though most marbles "considered" Millers are a larger size.
-
Score Dave, one of my favorite mibs !!
-
Nice clean mibs Tommy
-
"Happy Peltier Tuesday" All Rainbos, a few MCR, some Opaque's, Translucent & Transparent but no MCS in this pic.
-
Both Akro " Indian Blankets " if the second one makes even a partial rotation from pole to pole a messed up cork, if no rotation at all the second is a patch. "Good ones" no fractures as were common to this type. Just a side note but the label " Indians " refers to Handmade German marbles.
-
" Happy Marble King Monday A very nice multicolor blended MK, not mine & I can't remember where I got the pic. a real beauty ??
-
Yeah !! another one, doesn't matter how much av. is there as long as it's there, a lower value example but still an Alley Shimmering Blue spruce
-
