I also have some from my Grandpa--via my mother. Welcome here my marble ID looking friend "brently". I agree with Steph--more images are needed. I know that is a hard ID--but here goes. You have two possible Akro Agate "corkscrews" and an Akro "Filintie as well. None of them would be considered as high value imho. Maybe $20 all together—not worth the sell. These are very nice to have and a great thing to keep from Grandpa, I am sure that he loved and revered them. Marble--On!!

When these "Butter Milks" get bigger in size they seem to swirl out of order. The one in the images is over 3/4"--closer to 7/8" as I recall. Just a heads up for you. Marble--On!!

I agree with all of the above. The yellow in these is as intense as opaque yellow gets in marbles as far as I am concerned. Just an observation. Marble--On!!

Nice group! Marble--On!!

I agree Melissa. This is the thing with Akro vs Master Patches like this. I would lean Master on the left one. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

Fire has it right on imho--X2 Jabo. Marble--On!!

Top notch wormie, I have not seen much Akro Drizzle. Very nice find!! Marble--On!!

This is the way Ric--good job!! Marble--On!!

Welcome Marbleamy. Marble--On!!

This is always hard to argue with--Master patches vs Akro patches. If cheese says Master----hard to argue—Nice images cheese!! I will stick with Akro though--just my humble opinion and I appreciate them all. Marble—On!!

These always fool me--good call Cheese!!! Marble--On!!

Happy Halloween for sure—here are a few “Flinties”. Marble—On!!

If you take out the color and look at the white and blue it is no doubt a Master. I agree with Master--a weird one though. Marble--On!!

Nice Master! Nice images!!!! Marble--On!!

Classic Akro cutlines here--nice find! Marble--On!!

I am stumped too my marble collecting friend--no idea-- Marble--On!!

Regardless of the backwards thing--Good eye Fire!!! There are a few instances of this found--or like finds--different though. Remember when these were made. Sadly, back then, not everyone had a good basic education. I pass by my Fil’s school every once in awhile—it is 1/3 the size of my not too big house—I suppose that I should cut him some slack-------he is pushing 90--. Akro--on!!

This one was meant for you Fire--Love it! Marble--On!!

Nice find Mojo Yes--you can frost your own marbles no doubt---"Frosted Hurricanes” are a rare thing in the good ole USA –these are from across the Atlantic and I know—it could be done—not by this person—he knows his knows. Marble—On!!

I have made two canes out of "Diamond Willow"--no marbles attached. The first was for my mother in law--RIP. My Father in law still uses it when no one is looking. The second one--well it is for me--not yet finished--lol.( I may include a marble now) What a great trip to the out back looking for the right stick, then drying it and doing what had to be done--a great tribute to those that you love. Cane--On!!

Welcome herb watson, Never be afraid to show what you have in an image or two---all of us here were "starters" at one point or another. I would venture to say that most of us here have been "lurkers" at one point or another--willing to look but afraid to ask. I was for sure---it all pays off--no judgement here--just marbles--we all love-em. Marble--On!!

Nice one!! Marble--On!!

-----almost a jinx Chad----I was ready to hit enter when your notification was shown--so here goes--LOL. Welcome here to The Marble Connection Paulie, If you are not treated with kindness here just let me/us know---we all will fix it quickly. If this 2-1/4" orb has no flat spots to anchor it from rolling--I would consider it a Marble, many times orbs come with stands or flattened spots to keep them from rolling on the floor—I think that this one is meant to stand alone as a nice round object. Many contemporary marble makers make this size. I do not know when a marble or orb becomes an orb vs a marble but yours fits into the marble categories imho. Thanks for checking in and asking, I think that your Bro will appreciate it regardless. If you can decipher the signature--we here may suggest a maker. Marble—On!!

Ohh nooooo----- the white topic!! There are White Pelt Bannanas, White Akro snakes, red White and blue Popeyes, White gamer marbles of all sorts--on and on and on---- White is the most described color of any as far as it comes to collecting marbles. (Is clear a color--LOL) I just love this stuff! Lets cook this one up a bit!! I appreciate all opinions and look forward to them all. Marble--On!!
