And this little T-rex carved from soapstone. Why not? 😊

Had too have it for that price!....look it up, you'll recognize this beast from one of the "Jurassic World" movies 😊

Just picked it up today along with a jar of mostly MK cats. The mibs in this jar, including this one, were recently dug down in Alma,Iowa. There were a few decent ones in the mix, which I might post at some point 😊

Hairball on it's way! 🤣

Just because everything color is on one side of the marble thought I would verify 😊

I don't recall ever seeing a "Rootbeer" Cork before...anything significant?

Finally got em's carved... 20211022_184054.mp4

Little mini score today!

Those are nice, could you take a couple of closer shots showing more detail of the mibs? 😊

Been a while for me in that area of the country, lived in Jacksonville, Florida the first part of my life until 93'. Couldn't remember what part of the state Gainesville was in so had to Google 🤣....I still have extended family in Cordele as well as longtime friends in Waycross. My Stepfather's last name was Faircloth, his brother owned the liquor store there in Cordele for some time. Haven't been down that way since a 3 day visit too Lake City, Florida back in 2016. Concerning the marbles, old doesn't necessarily mean valuable and the seller's "claims" could be just what someone told him. I just couldn't see a collector knowingly tossing pricey mibs into a mass of commons, risking damage and such. I'm guessing he hasn't a clue about what's what in those containers. Hopefully someone negotiates and gets it down to a fair price!

Wow, Gladys, I'm not sure what to say about the identity but that mib is sharp! 😊

I would have thought so too, Tommy...like it 👍

Lots of cool Cat's in this thread 👍

You gotta be kidding...you actually read my $100 mind...🧠

Make an offer, Sherry! Couldn't hurt. No one wants to overspend, but ya never know. We've all hit some nice little gems in jars/containers like that. My most memorable one thus far was an Akro Sparkler in a $12 jar. But obviously, we're looking at more than just a $12 jar. That's alot of fun in that picture. Not trying to push your buttons to buy, I just love the thrill of the chase. Maybe grab some advice from the pool of knowledge that is MarbleConnection. I think I know what I would offer. But what's the seller thinking? What's the seller know? Or doesn't Know? I would see what happens while trying to keep it in my budget 😊

Nice....I'm all over the place, though still fond of Hair Nation. From James Brown to Kenney Chesney to Queensryche...one of many influences. Gotta say though, I love shooting a few good games of stick with some Zep!

Oh yeah, and 1 triple cross through, red, white and blue, if those two qualify as tough to find...

I think I have 1 pink, a Vitro. Nice mibs there, Bill!

Now that looks like a ton of fun...stealing one from Motley Crue here..."Knock Em Dead Kid"! 😊

Beautiful mib! 👍

Nice indeed 👍

Agreed, something new and unknown every day 😊

I kind of had that feeling it would backpedal from $10, which I did hesitate with. I was pegging the majority if not all of the marbles of question as commons and looks to be the case. Was hoping the bag would help 🤔 Thanks for the thoughts, Ron!

Yes it does...

Sorry about the photo, didn't have alot of time too sort for better shots as it was almost closing time!
