X3--nice marble!! Marble--On!!
-
I agree with Al--no Ox here. The first marble has always been hard for me. Vitro "All Reds" did not all have red invloved. I think that you have the second one right--nice marble. More opinions are needed on the first one imho. Marble--On!!

This is a great book! I will give it bump up to $150. Marble--On!!
-
Not a lady of any sort imho--The hues that are polluting this marble makes for a hard ID. The "lady types" will show up with purple in a variety of hues from dark to light instead of white such as yours. I would consider this one a white in amber "Slag type" marble. An Alley Agate--probably. Thanks for the better images. Nice marble regardless of the ID. Marble--On!!
-
Nice coral for sure--I just love this type of marble. Nice images as well. I think that this one is a very fine example of an Alley Agate. More opinions are needed for sure and I respect them all. Marble--On!!

These Akro patches show up more than often in this size than any other Akro for whatever reason. Nice ID imho. Marble--On!!
-
I agree with Ric--Nice cork! Marble--On!!
-
It is very pretty and I love the color combo on this one. Nice Jabo Classic! Marble--On!!
-
So many bubbles! I have to lean towards a Pelt with all of the bubbles involved. @Fire1981 may have a better clue than I do. Nice images! Marble--On!!
-
I notice some blue hues here--is it from the surrounding area or is it true? Marble--On!!
-
It may seem pretty big for a game marble but Vitro made them as large as 7/8" in my experience. I have looked very closely at plenty of game marbles and they all look better under magnification. Cool images--it is a swirl--just maybe a game swirl. Marble--On!!

Size is 21/32" looks handgathered

This is a tuff one for me. I notice the "pocket wear" and the nice flake as well. Nice hard glass here. This one is not finished very well (noit very round) and the "pontils" look to be the folded type. Transitionals are not in my area of expertise. Lets call in @Nantucketdink for an opinion here. @Alan could give us some help as well. @YasudaCollector may have some comments to give also. I think that this one is pre--the Japenese invasion of marbles into the good ole USA. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!! -
I love reading Champion here. Some of the later Champion looked very close to being a Jabo Classic. Marble--On!!

MK X2 nice images! Marble--On!!

This is a pretty cool marble with nice images included as well. I think that considering the damage, this is an older slag that may be a hand-gathered one. The white is buried in this one. When the white gets close to the surface in an amber slag it will display as –almost yellow. I like the little dark dots on the buried white that look like shadows from some of the bubbles. Nice find—more opinions are appreciated and welcomed. Marble—On!!

It is a hand-gathered marble, a cute little orb for sure. Very busy for such a small one. MFC is not out of the question, and I would lean towards MFC. Nice marble--very nice! Marble--On!!

More than one image is needed here my marble collecting friend. Marble--On!!

Purple & White Swirl with a Nipple.

Pretty cool marble imho. Opalesent glass for the base--this one is just a weird WVS imho. Maybe a double of two? More opinions are needed for sure. Marble--On!!- 1 reply

There are these and there are those. I think that the first one is a Jabo There are these, then there are those, my marble collecting friend. @VaMarbles shows a nice example of what I think is a Heaton--yours is crossing the line between Heaton and Jabo for me. More opinions are needed for sure. Marble--On!!

We do not laugh at any one here at TheMarbleConnection. Well that is a lie, I laugh alot at @FIRE81 posts--it is all in fun and he knows it. "Mib" is just a standard term from years ago ( before the internet) meaning a marble of some sort. Marble--On!!
-
Nice job with the images. This one is a common WVS imho. No maker ID from me. Marble--On!!
-
Use your old phone--why struggle? Marble--On!!
-
I have seen a few Akro from "the digs" that resemble this one--just sayin. Marble--On!!
