    Hmm--pretty weird @Ric there is ox invloved for sure but it is coupled with a greyish hue. I will back off of the Brick thing for sure--is it a contemporary made marble? I stiil lean towards vintage--but what? Marble--On!!
  3. I always appreciate an opinion on MK's questions from @Melissa. She does love this type and I appreciate any and all input from her. Marble--On!!
  4. What Ric says---pretty cool find--very weird but very cool as well. Ya just never know do you---- I just love the story and the find--I just love this stuff!!! Thanks for sharing !! Marble--On!!
  5. What a thing with corkscrews--- We all have our faves but they are all very cool to hold and look at. Marble--On!!
  6. Akro Ware--we have not seen much lately. The blue one is made from the Molds that were purchased after Akro went belly up. I do not remember who made them. Same molds--pretty cool--part of my collection for sure. I think that we got this one from the wife's Grandmother--even cooler imho. Akro--On!!
  7. Welcome my marble collecting friend. Nice images! Marble--On!!
  8. Welcome---and show us what you have. Marble--On!!
  9. Welcome to "The MarbleConnection" Josiah. Show us what you have and be rewarded with a few ID's. Marble--On!!
  10. I have a hard time calling this one a Master. English is my call.--Whispler. What does @Alan think? Marble--On!!
  11. Imho--you have a mix here. Contemporary vs Antique. @Chad G. can narrow them down for sure but you have to post some individual shots of each. Show the poles—or the ruff spots on each marble. Marble--On!!

    This one is a slag. Some damage yes--but still pretty cool looking. I might call it an Akro but I am far from sure. Marble--On!!

    Call this one a "Brick". The cutline is very big--like Ric says--- MFC--but maybe an Akro imho. Killer marble! Very Nice!! What a beauty!! Thanks for sharing it with us. Marble--On!!
  16. Nice images--lets call in @cheese The new book regarding WVS was in part some of his work. Here is a link--- https://marbleconnection.com/topic/39867-the-west-virginia-swirls-book-is-now-available/#comment-339317
  17. A Pelt it is--nice marble! Marble--On!!
  18. It probably is what you call it. Nice coverage--nice images for sure. Just edit your images to not take up so much room on the board with wasted background. Nice images--just crop them a tad more. Marble--On!!
  19. It is a keeper--Pay the light bill! Thanks for sharing it! Marble--On!!
  20. Yeh Fire--you need better images for sure. At this point I would call it a MK. Marble--On!!
  21. Augers have the color going down the middle of the marble--like an auger or Ice/ Earth drill--like a drill bit--if you know what I mean. Nice marble--cool colors! Marble--On!!
  22. I agree with Fire--nice marble! Probably a wvs of some sort--vintage--probably an Alley Agate imho. Marble--On!!
  23. Good job for sure with the images! This one is a white “Flintie”—and an Akro “Moonie” at the same time. I have never seen the difference. These white “Flinties” are a hard find if you consider them different from “Moonies”—they may be thicker such as you show but I doubt that. “Flintie” boxes just showed more colors with the same reaction to uv or opalescent light. This marble made my month—maybe this year of the very best find. You did your work and research and I respect it for sure. Too many collectors pass on this type as game marbles and toss them aside without the time and fraction that it takes to ID marbles. This is a great marble that many do not recognize. Is it worth much money? No--just a very cool find--very cool!! Good job!!! Marble--On!!
