    Hey all

    Good job Pieces! MK is what I see here. Marble--On!!
  2. Odd for sure Melissa! I have never seen these before. Are they Glass? KateSo? Lets ask @Mojo for an opinion here. I love the weird and cool. @Al Oregon is another that has held some pretty weird marbles in his life. I am bumfrickled here. Nice find--Whatever these are. If you are a seller post them please. Marble--On!!
  3. I think that Melissa is right on here. This is a big one no doubt. It reminds me of a "Buttermilk"--the base glass. They did not all come out perfect after all. We all see the images on the web or in books but with a few exceptions most folks will not waste time posting "What may be or what may have been". @Fire1981 and I will post crappy, beat up marbles, but we love them all and we are not ashamed to admit it. I love a good "crappy marble"--they were all mint at one time or another. Marble--On!!
  4. So--these came from a swamp?? Marble--On!!
  5. Size always matters. Nice marble and I think that Mellisa is right on. Marble--On!!
  6. Consider this my marble collecting friends. A Vacor Atmosphere crossed with another Vacor Atmosphere. I may be mental here🤪but it does line up in my world at least. This is a very cool marble!! I do look and consider all of what is posted here at the Marble Connection. This one is not all that old--but very cool imho.. Marble--On!!
  7. I looked a long hard time at this one and I put it through my image software. I have never seen one like it before. The size is the thing here--it does remind me of some marbles that were made in Europe, but it is pretty small. Lets call in @Mojo for an opinion. It is a pretty cool marble imho. Marble—On!!
  8. Nice images for sure. They are both MK--the blue on the left one is very nice and deep. The white on both of these is--just--well Killer. I am not a name guy and I appreciate any and all considerations here. Marble--On!!
  9. Ohhh-this is a nice one! I think that it it is an Alley Agate. Lets call in @cheese for an opinion here. Cheese has a book coming out in the next few months (with help) regarding WVS and he will always be my go to regarding these nice weird finds. Marble--On!!
  10. There are a few companies that made these "Matt" finished marbles. Vacor is known for these. Never waste a marble and most of the Vacor were given this finish because the intitial marble was out of sorts. They tumbled them and sold them as such. This one is not a Vacor. I would consider this one as a "Beach Marble" and it may be from the Great Lakes region. It is a WVS that took some sand "polishing". There are folks that Collect these. Nice find imho! Marble--On!!
  11. They are Vitro-swamp lot??? I would love to hear the history here---pretty cool imho. Marble--On!!
  12. These are a hard find, the ones that have great coverage. These "frit" Marbles took some effort to make and if you find some good ones it is worth the effort. @Alan may have some more info on this type. Marble--On!!
  13. I would jump on this one for sure schmoozer. Marble-On!!
  14. That Pink one is very hard to find--Love it. Marble--On!!
  15. There is a "Muddy" The far left one. You have some nice images here. The green and white one kinda in the middle right is a very nice example of a Pelt something. "Pink Panther" is a new term for me at least. Point this one out Tommy and lets get it on. Marble--On!!
  16. I would get back in contact with the seller. Someone found a "Navarre" dig site imho. Nice finds-go after it like a Golden Lab chases birds for more info( just do not get wet). Of course, share what you find here--these are special. Marble--On!!
  17. Welcome to the club on this one Cheese. It is cool , it is old, but who made it is still up for grabs. Marble--On!!
  18. I do not blame the seller--this is a tuff one. I would have to see it in hand to make a call here. Vacor Serpents VS Peltier. This is a close call. I would be a weak Pelt and a strong Vacor. I would stay away at this price. Marble--On!!
  19. I just wonder about this one. Is there any history that you can share with us? If @Melissa looks very hard she may agree with me. The size is right the colors are right. Lets see some more input here. A mystery marble that may be a one of one. Vacor--but what name? Marble--On!!
  20. It is a Rainbo---with a stripe of metallic stuff. Not too special but a good find--I can tell that you are looking very closeley. Nice job-- great images--- Marble--On!!

    Akro?

    The bright green stripe throws me off a bit as far as Akro is concerned. I would shy away from MK with this one. Have you considered Peltier or Master? More images are needed here imho. Marble--On!!
  22. If steelies were included well--sniff the net. This is an odd one. If you can sniff it and it smells like onion--well you know were I am going with this (maybe potato). Nets never came this big in my experience. Maybe 100 marbles in a net but that would be a stretch imho. Steelies were never sold in this form --- a mix--except for yours. Nice find--nice images. Marble--On!!
  23. I wonder what No 50 means and I wonder how many I have seen and tossed aside as Jabo? Marble--On!!
  24. Sorry, I missed the mesh bag. Do you have any unopened images? Marble--On!!
