Heaton--Sweet potato? This is my observation. More opinions are needed and welcomed. Marble--On!!
-
This sounds right Ric--good call. Marble--On!!
-
This one may be a Vacor---"USA"? More opinions are needed--there are a bunch of RWB marbles that have been made over the years. Marble--On!!
-
My guess would be an "Exotic" that did not "tic" all of the way. More opinions are needed. Marble--On!!

My first tought was Akro for some odd unreachable reason in this old brain. I will go for it now--the unreachable part. Marble--On!!

Really--- Five stacked? Opposing tips do not count? ( I count them) Marble--On!!

Size always matters--that being said, pattern and colors. CAC did a lot of batch glass--or glass from scratch from a recipe. This keeps the colors more true to the maker. They may have used some cullet--or glass purchased from other glass makers to use in the furnace but not too much. Colors and patterns always tip me off. Marble--On!!

Stephen Bahr videos---“Alley Agate Identification and Nicknames”. There at least two of the vids. Marble--On!!

I see what bothers you, the white/lighter stuff in the large ground pontil. It does seem a little odd. If were polishing compound it would be easily removed with a wet toothbrush. The marble is a nice one and it appears to me to have an original surface. More opinions are needed and always welcomed. Marble—On!!

Yes--a WVS--no jabo here imho. The maker? More opinions are needed. Marble--On!!

Moonies reveal themselves when back-lit. The best need no backlighting and glow in hand under sunlight. Simple marbles--but not always an easy ID.

Thanks Cheese, Here is another Lady Tator--I think. Marble--On!!

I recieved this one in a trade with a good marble collecting friend. I have done a fair amount of research but I still suck at WVS ID. The base is quite clear and it does show some moderate opal. This one is 5/8" Regardless of what it is---it is a great one! Marble--On!!

The "Score!" thread. Post your exciting finds here...
akroorka replied to bumblebee's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Yes it is--nice find!! Marble--On!! -
I agree with Chad--these are late marbles with an iridescent finish applied/sprayed to the outside of them. Many companies produce these for the crafter market. They are cool to look at—just not “Moonies” from the distant past. Marble—On!!

This is one that I have never heard of Ric--let alone a two inch "Brick"🙃. Is this a real thing? Do you have any images to share? I am out of luck when it comes to names--especially hand-mades. Marble--On!!
