A few stray Marble King & a Vitro or 2 & at least 1 Akro, but over half are Pelts, you're getting there Charles, nice mibs

That pinch of oxblood is killer VVHTF on that mib indeed !! On a MCS every once in a while but that's over the top, I agree with Bo, love it !! Mmm, Mm ... Yesir !!

Yeah Buddy, thems some nice Pelts Bo !! All of em !!

"Welcome Back Bonnie" Yes of course we missed you, so "Good" to hear from you & that you are ok & getting better. Look forward to some new discussions and completing some old ones as well. I just had a bit of "Marble Therapy" on my feet, picking up marbles with my toes is prescribed therapy for "planters Fasciitis" This is really the paper my Dr. gave me, I couldn't believe it !! Oh !! where to start ?? Hope ya get a chuckle out of this Bonnie, I sure did !!

Yes the DR. said to wait because I may be in permanent or worse pain after the operation, just supposing things do go awry a little. Back surgery is a bit different, they want to put rods through 5 of the vertebrae in my lower back, at least partially fusing them, I really only went so far into the discussion. I have friends that wonder why they didn't get it sooner but I have a few that can barely walk, so I'm depending on the LORD to let me know "if" & "when" hopefully never !! Guess there are risks with any surgery, that's why you sign a waiver before hand, not for you but so you can't sue them if anything unforeseen should happen. Your insurance will cover you but $$ can't make you walk again. My hopes are high, everything has stopped progression for over 12 years now, so permanently I hope !!

Hmm !! Looks like one of the unidentified foreign single sided patches like the ones Joep has ?? I'm at a loss !!

Killer mibs Bill ......

Suweet, I made it !! "HAPPY PELTIER TUESDAY"

The "Bionic Man" !! No pins yet but they want to put rods in my back, many different opinions from every Doc I talk to. Maybe $$ is the driving force ?? The Dr. I trust said to wit till the pain was too much then get the surgery, makes me a little Leary but at least I have a choice.

Nearly here, the "Countdown" has begun !! 🕚

I just meant "nearly made 1 inch" it's still a Berry pink.

There is a dark red translucent almost opaque red one called a jewel that I don't have one of, hoping to score one soon but VHTF. Both pics from the "Peltier Marbles info site" & yes I'm drooling just looking at them, Peltaliciouse !!! LINK : https://www.peltiermarbles.info/

Some pics of a few of the trans, red based Pelts Peltier NLR Cherry Bomb Ruby Slipper Following Pics courtesy of the Peltier Marbles info site.

Not mine but a killer transparent, is this is what you meant by naked ?? 127/128ths, nearly made it !!

Yes !! Right on the money !! Volcano is much more common from what I gather ?? Never the less, these are now all buried under a myriad of feet of dirt & pavement or concrete, probably never to be seen again, lucky to have been able to dig them at all, my gratitude goes to all the diggers & especially the land owners for giving the go ahead to dig before they were all covered forever. I know I appreciate the people I got some from & the opportunity to own a part of American History !! Heaton Black Cherries Heaton Volcano

You're welcome Gladys, all mine have at least some damage as well, I keep them all.

All 4 just CAC swirls, no names as of yet !!

Yes Ron I see it also, looks like a Heaton Volcano in the top pic of 6, 3rd in from left to right

From your first pic, top row third from left to right, The Heaton Volcano

I see a dark purple base glass Akro slag ??

A late start, missed the big countdown but "HAPPY MARBLE KING MONDAY" Sorry for the blur 🥺 !!

"Peltier Ruby Slipper" Almost always a smaller size & nearly always has the bubble filled base, dimples and a blowout or two, a wet mint one without defect is VHTF ( Very Hard to Find )

It's almost time !! The Marble King countdown has begun. A little over 3 & 1/2 Hrs. to go 🕣

Unmistakably Master, classic pattern & colors, less is more !! I use rubber "O" rings for stands as well, they stay put & there's never any scratching or rolling off the stand.

Smore !!
