    I agree, "Millers" are still Millers imho but they are a rare find in todays world. This one is just a very nice "swirly" Pelt Rainbo. Just a Killer Marble! Thanks for sharing it with us here @TheMarbleConnection. Marble--On!!

    Kinda weird seeing opalescence here—am I right? You cannot really tell with any lighting when red is involved in the marble. This one is an Akro imho. Classic Akro cutmarks are evident. Nice find! Marble--On!!

    Imho, This one is an Akro--"Hero" type. It is a hard thing to differentiate between early Akro’s and early Masters—this is an early one and a “Patch type”. Akros generally have ½ coverage and Masters generally have 1/3 coverage in my experience. Regardless of all of that, this is just a great old “Patch type” that exudes “Old”. I just love to see it—thanks for sharing it. Marble—On!!

    Vitro?

    akroorka replied to DSCary's topic in Marble I.D.'s

    It is not a Vitro imho. Roberto see's the blue as I do--kinda weird really. I will call this one a Master--earlier version. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

    Given the images of course---this one is a Vitro. Size is alway important in Marble ID's. The purple "blush" here is a Vitro trate that is hard to attribute to any other maker. I want them all to be Akro--this one is not one imho. I apreciate all opinions and hope to see some more here. @Melissa is on top of this type and I defer to her for a proper ID. Marble--On!!

    This one may be a Champion. @Al Oregon and @Melissa may have some input to share here. "New Old Fashioned"??? Marble--On!!

    X3! Nice find and ID by all here. Marble--On!!

    This one is a dug wvs or at the least one that went through a house fire. It looks out of round, the white is opalescent, the pattern is a wvs type. I will suggest a Ravenswood here. Marble--On!!

    Cool Marble! This one has seen some play wear and it appears to have been at the very least a "Beach Marble"--a collectable on its' own. I like it for sure. Thanks for sharing it here. Marble--On!!

    Nice one! You keep me in line--no problem here. The nuns are turning over in their graves😁. Marble--On!!
