  1. The pix & the marbles are from right here on the forum eggie, I'll post the thread link for ya below, just click on it !! As for the pix I only wish those were my mibs, I'm still lookin !! LINK : https://marbleconnection.com/topic/21465-mostly-pix-veiligglas/page/3/
  2. All 3 Pelt Rainbos William, I've been collecting them for years with no end in sight !!
  3. No, I don't want yours eggie, just saying those are my favorites with the colored ones you have pictured a close second, some great mibs, all of them
  4. Still just a Rainbo William, they will vary widely form one end of the spectrum to the other, opaque to translucent & everywhere in between, the shades of blue are almost endless as well, some colors are rare & HTF, "Yes" I keep em all, I love the great diversity in the rainbos !!
  5. Lookin good !! Do your have any stacked like these, not mine but this is what I am looking for !!
  6. Yes but we found out what others suspected, a transitional alright, I'm trying to make room for my other foot !! How long do I have to do this Greetz ??
  7. I thought that's what you had going on, I couldn't see any real killers in the jar, anxious to see your favorites.
  8. I guess ordering direct from her is a couple bucks cheaper ?? I Emailed her & got an immediate response !! Here's her name & the Ebay link, contact info should be on the Ebay site, I had her Phone # but can't find it ?? I'll find it by the end of the day & post it here Elizabeth A. Kempski Ebay : https://www.ebay.com/itm/The-World-of-Cats-Eye-Marbles/233730858682?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160908105057%26meid%3Da6862c067d884a0384fa727dbbde8dfb%26pid%3D100675%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D15%26mehot%3Dnone%26sd%3D233730858682%26itm%3D233730858682%26pmt%3D0%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2380057%26brand%3DUnbranded&_trksid=p2380057.c100675.m4236&_trkparms=pageci%3Ab4d14171-68a4-11eb-886f-8e345d908693|parentrq%3A787d5eae1770a9e5384a73ccffeb401c|iid%3A1
  9. Thanks eggie for all the great info, wow they must have had a tremendous amount of stock. By the way "Great Mibs" Love em !!
  10. Looks like a foreign cats eye to me ??
  11. 15/16 is big for a christensen, not that I haven't seen them, did you mean to write "tiny" "super small" & "15/16ths" ?? Strange seams for a CAC, it kinda looks like a Pelt to me ??
  12. "Maybe" a shot of the top end of the pic shown will resolve this dilemma ?? I am at an impasse ?? I've been wrong plenty of times before one more time won't hurt only help ( I Hope) I MAY HAVE DONE IT THIS TIME ?? HELP ME PLEASE !! I'M HURTING MYSELF !!
  13. They look "Berry Delicious" thanks for the break Steph, nothing like laughter to get you through the day 🤣
  14. Good point Bruce ?? I may be wrong but I'll still say machine made
  15. Thanks, almost 7/8ths, a big one.
  16. Looks machine made, just curious, do you happen to remember the size ??
  17. Excellent, love Veiligglas, some of the best stacked flame patters I have ever seen, I wish they were more prevalent over here. I gave mine to a friend who collects them in Italy. Yes the tags would be a plus but still in the bag, a great find I was wondering, do you know which one of these bags is harder to come by ?? older, newer ??
  18. Mmm... Mmm... Master....................Yeah Buddy !!! Them Vitro's aint bad either. Nice mibs & boxes Bill The Roses are smelling especially sweeet today !!!
  19. Good job Ric, every one a killer, & the box as well
  20. Proper "Joseph coat" no such thing as a Jacob coat. Yours all appear to be onionskins from here, onionskins have an underlying opaque coat of usually white with colors either stretched or speckles on top of this, with no visible window into the interior except maybe at the poles, may contain lutz or mica. "Josephs coats" are transparent based glass with opaque colored colored canes added to on the outside with a clear visible window to the interior. I will give some pictures of each, joseph coats may contain aventurine also. Both are covered in or (cased) by a coat of usually transparent or (clear) glass on the outside. As in all marbles there are variants (marbles that appear to be both) these are just some examples of each for you to look at. Ric also posted an excellent link, hopefully this gives you a better understanding of a few handmades & helps you on your marble journey. Lots more here just enter "Joseph coat" or "Onion skin" into the search bar, have fun !!! JOSEPH COAT JOSEPH COATS ALL JOSEPH COATS ONIONSKIN w/ LUTZ ONIONSKINS ONIONSKINS with the one on the far left being a shrunken onionskin ONIONSKIN W/ MICA JOSEPHS COAT W/ AVENTURINE
  21. 'You're welcome" yes 5/8ths (16mm) most common. The big shooters are 63/64ths (25mm) nearly one inch. Sizes are directly under the pictures, here's the link to a conversion table showing "fractions" to "decimals" to "mm" I use all the time & have it tabbed to my favorites, so many use the metric system now I had to.

  22. Definitely not a pistachio then, just a swirl. Pistachios also are uv reactive. Looked black on my monitor plus early & I'm not wearing my glasses, sorry bout that one.
  23. Understood !! as for the dark green I'm pretty sure it's just a regular clay, lots of damage, beningtons are low value also unless you get a rare color like pink etc......
  24. If my monitor is correct your base glass is black ?? If yes I think you have a "Vacor Samurai" . "Werewolf" has a brown base instead of black
