Oxblood sparkler with aventurine

The one Vitro I wish I had never parted with

Same one, these are the shots I was looking for

It looks like it to me !!

I bought an old crystal 5 gallon glass water jar of marbles at an estate sale once and like 1/3rd of them had these circles on them. Some even had chipping around the circular marks making me think it happened after manufacturing. Not just from one manufacturer either. I wonder if they were hit marks from some type of early marble gun ?? Still a conundrum for me ?? I threw them all out, the marks rendered them useless for collecting, now I wish I would have held onto a few at least.

Some real beauties Brother

Can I cry now or later

I know it's just a Pelt zebra but the amount of av. on it was incredible, these pictures in no way do this marble justice. Whoever owns it now is a lucky dog no seams. Miller style

Same set, I just had wooden box made for the mibs. It took a while but I did it. No offset av patches all clear stamps, no fleas or dimples, mint, I'm a happy camper

Yes Roby, Please do

Missing one pontil is end of cane, EOD is interpreted by people in different ways and is a confusing definition IMO. My understanding is running out of any certain color that is being stretched over the surface of the marble or cane from pole to pole and having that color run out before the other end of the marble. Here's Stanley Blocks book on the subject, you can see several different examples of them on the cover of the book. Click on the link and enlarge the picture I guess ?? Or get the book LINK : https://www.amazon.com/Antique-Glass-End-Day-Marbles/dp/0764316303 This example was always my interpretation of EOD :

yes

Yes, yes, he's a verry trustworthy seller, always has some good stuff LINK : https://www.ebay.com/itm/297696748333?mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&campid=

yes, I hope it's just an outstanding marble

X2, Jabo made some really nice contract run oxbloods

Not verry common to find an EOD coat like this, I got a lot of $$ for this one, 1 & 3/16ths a monster for a coat of this type and gem mint, bye bye

sheathed solid core (German Hand Made)

Both Silver oxbloods, not really seeing green,. maybe a hint on the end of the one. anything can happen on a marble, any type of anomaly. Some make them worth more money and some do nothing, while others will subtract from the value. I collect what I like, no matter the value

looks like a bit of everything

one, maybe 2, not positive though

not seeing any, single views though

first one looks like a lemonade oxblood, don't know what the other two are ? Slags have a transparent clear base no matter the color.
