  1. I know the bigger Vacor boulders & the toe breakers they make almost all have the "Orange peel" surface. The smaller 14 - 15 mm ( around 5/8ths) have it a much smaller portion of the time.
  2. I'll say all Vacor The swirling pattern looks the same in all three to me, vacor has cuts just like a CAC in some & also some have Pelt traits, I've had a few Vacor I had to take 2 or 3 looks at to make sure they weren't pelts, I believe there was a serpentina that was very close to a Pelt superman, it even had "A" seem but the colors & the rest of the mib where just a little off !! A few looked exactly like pelt Bumble bees they swirled like your marbles, seems on one side & swirls on the other. ALMOST THE EXACT SAME SWIRL PATTERNS IN THE GLASS, THE BUMBLE BEE IS A BIT DIFFERENT BUT STILL A VACOR
  3. Agree with Ric, "not Vitro" Asian Imperials
  4. 1. Latticinio 2. A very tight divided core ?? if a gap anywhere in the white core not a solid core but a tight divided core. Solid means solid. The upper left side view of the core in this pic suggests a slight window into the core making it a divided core. 3. Latticinio 4. Coreless swirl ?? 5. Latticinio Latticinio has to do with the net looking design in the core & is one of the most common handmades True black is one of the rarer colors, so the Latt. with the black & orange outer stripes is probably the best. Highest value you have is the tri stage solid core (Tight divided core) peewee ?? tops ":maybe" $10.00 the rest are about $5.00 to $8.00 each on a "good day" None are EOC (end of cane) None look to be polished Condition looks pretty good, no heavy pocket wear (general wear) only one or 2 visible flea bites, no hits, not polished, no fractures, all together in good shape just common. Still nice shape for you first ones. Pricing is hard, all perspective, as of recently the market for the smaller common handmades has taken a dip, it will "probably" rebound ?? over the years I have seen it go up & down many times. Back and forth, though it does seem to be trending more towards the machine mades as a new generation comes about. if I were you I'd buy what I like & go by the these three basic rules Condition, Condition, Condition. Keep a eye on general sale prices as a whole, time and experience are your best friends.
  5. 1. Peltier 2. Akro slag 3. Akro slag 4. Peltier zebra ?? Agree with Ric, very little to no value due mostly to poor condition
  6. I would have sprung also, a beautiful piece, wish I could translate it ??
  7. Sorry about seeing the black & green I really need to put my glasses on before I start looking at marbles. As Ron said about all "Alleys" some desirable but it looks as if the best have damage. "No Oxblood" & no high value even if they were all mint, just desirable maybe a buck or two each for the red & yellow swirls at best, if they were mint.
  8. "Welcome to Marble Connection Raisin" A great place to be, glad to have you !!
  9. Nice Marbles eggie, I knew ya had some stashed away
  10. Cool, a couple of the larger Blue & White spotted ones I had gifted to me, made by Vacor, I believe they're called Galaxy marbles. I keep them in a prominent place with all gifted marbles, all good memories of good friends, regardless of value they're priceless to me. "Thanks" for the post, some great memories
  11. Pelt MCS with ox, the only type Pelts I've seen it on until now (I think) ?? "Thanks for the pix mibber" a beautiful little marble !!
  12. Go for it, I got some spare shoes !!
  13. Yesir thems all "Vacor" ........Thx for the pix !! VACOR (MEGA) I.D. LINK : https://www.billes-en-tete.com/liste_billes.php?lang=en Some may not appear on this site, this is just the most complete one available.
  14. Ah well maybe I should have stuck with my first intuition ?? My mouth is getting sore, time for some exercise
  15. You're "Very Welcome" I talked to someone who has collected for over 40 years and is a Pelt head like me and agrees with me. 100% Pelt, he'll probably post later, I hope that this helps ya a bit.
  16. I'm still going with Pelt, even with the small size. I have many around the 9/16ths mark. "Very nice marble" by the way, hard to get all that action onto such a small canvas.
