  1. Thank you - I know people who go crazy over these mistakes. I don't go crazy, but I like them, just as Chad says, for their historical value! However, if they are prized marbles (we know which ones), or not prized, but that include unique and particular features, I think the value can rise quite a bit. Then, the matter can be subjective. Some Cairo Novelty errors, from excavation, followed by Ravenswood and DAS
  2. I think it is a real cornelian, since it is not very 'special,' but I have never researched these things
  3. Personally no, unless they have truly intricate reasons, or yes, a chemically altered aspect. So, very few attract my attention. the first one that follows after the group has an opalescent appearance (labradorite), with beautiful bluish reflections
  4. I once found one here in Italy with a glass similar to this one. It was part of an imperial group.

    Yes for the first two, I have a bit of doubt about the last one....seems imperial
  6. If it weren't for the measurements being so large, I would (perhaps) have attributed this to a 'Peltier Boyce second run 2001' cat's eye, weak, but those only reach a maximum of 0.669 (17mm) or 0.708 (18mm) I think it's a European marble, (perhaps) made in France? They probably made similar marbles, but I'm just guessing... Some images of a type of 'Peltier Boyce second run 2001', with a coloration similar to the op
  7. Not whispler, even though it might have a weak, similar structure. Also, I assure you it would have been much more bubbly than this.
  8. Ahaha, I had never heard this term "belly button", strong! Thanks again, Chad, for confirming it
  9. Thank you! I just wanted to point out that you can see a ring-shaped pontil, typical of Navarre.
  10. This marble of about 0.708 inches (18mm), with obvious fire damage, I got some time ago from a guy who claimed to have found it in a junkyard. Now, it was claimed to be MFC, but nothing for sure, any opinions? Here is the boy's statement: "i dug this from an old land fill . Plymouth NH jul 2017 Approx 3-4 feet depth. Also pulled out a bunch of benningtons and mib shards. Land fill was from a massive fire burned 12 homes. Late 40s." "The soil composition wat predominantly ash/charcoal. Almost all the glass in this horizon was melted. I had to dig through this to get to the pre 1900 dump" I took some photos and videos,

    Vitro?

    No Vitro conqueror
  12. Not imperial, In my opinion, they are both Akro
  13. With reference to the second photo, it could be Pelt, but I cannot say for sure here Let's see other opinions...
  14. Ravenswood- That metallic could be an accidental deposit that occurred during production. It happens with many mibs
