The first two images—the left one may be a “Pelt Banana” I have seen these with the same sparkle effect from bags that I have opened—especially the green ones. The right hand one is a foreign cat eye which more than likely has an iridescent finish. The second set and the third set—I cannot ID. The third set seems pretty big—size always matters in Marble ID’s, and I suspect Vacor here. The fourth set has to be a Pelt or a---Kokomo—just mho. The fifth set –the blue one has to be a slag—probably an Akro. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble—On!!

Lets see what @Nantucketdink Has to say. Thanks all !! Marble--On!!

It sure is Ric.....Is it a Pelt trying to be a cat eye or a cateye tring to be a Pelt? Or--maybe one of those "newer" MK's that always throw me off-- Regardless--nice marble! Marble--On!!

Thanks cheese! Heaton it is--but--is it a slag😁? Marble--On!!

Nice one Fire!!---Yep!! Marble--On!!

I cannot call the first one on the left. The middle one is a stone cut agate—not glass. Look for facets. The third is a Vitro “Conqueror” of a weird and very nice design. Of course more opinions are needed and are always welcomed. Marble—On!!

LOL---- I always love a non committal answer from a respected member. I am still on the fence with this one. Marble—On!!

This one is a Master Marble "Sunburst". A great looking and very old marble. Just mho-- More opinions are needed and welcomed. Nice find!! Marble--On!!

I would sort this one as a Pelt Fire. Marble--On!!

I disagree. I have always been a slag vs swirl guy. This one is on the fence for me and it always has been. This color combo is just a weird and rare one imho. Thanks Ric! Marble--On!!

Ummmm?? I am not getting the green thing. It is a "Brick" imho. Marble--On!!

Send it to Wisconsin for a final eval---. Marble--On!!

I have no problem calling this one an Akro. Just a great example imho. Very pretty!! More opinions are always welcomed. Marble--On!!

Never regret a good pass on a bad deal--or a good one for that matter. We have all been there-done that! Just continue to-- Marble--On!!

This is one of my favorite color combos. I am quite sure at ¾” that they are Jabo contracts—I may be wrong—correct me as you may. For $5 a piece I am in all day. I just like them--enough said. I just realized that I do not have a Jabo folder on my hard drive--it is done,done, done, done!! Marble—On!!

You know what--I agree--it may be a Pelt--Nice one--no names from me. Marble--On!!

This is just one of those Mk's imho. Nice one though-- More opinions are needed. Marble--On!!

Yep! Marble--On!!

Obviously Fire. I will lean towards—sorry no lean here--- Nice find! Marble—On!!

This one is a slag imho--Akro--Maybe--- Marble--On!!

At ¾” I would usually just defer to this one being a Jabo—but it has a weird finish like that of a later Champion. You know, that weird misted on shiny metallic finish. This type of finish has always been hard for me to capture in an image. I have looked at this one for many months and have yet to get a grip on it. Regardless of the maker—it is a beauty! I need some opinions here on the maker. I just love the marble—my kind of stuff for sure. Nice and round and very minty!!(The oxblood makes my blood boil!) I just love this stuff!! Marble—On!!

Dwarfed does not mean a bad thing--selective is a good thing. I have a selective collection that is dwarfed by those that I do not collect. Dwarfed does not mean a bad thing--selective is a good thing. I have a selective collection that is dwarfed by those that I do not collect. This is the way! Marble—On!!

I do not believe it and I would never believe it. Antique dealers do not keep their collections in-store—ever. This type of marble were dug and collected as such. Not to say that they were not marketed but as I recall there were a fair amount of these found in the ground. Size always matters! I have been there and I usually win--I have passed on things that I wished I would have purchased. This is collecting, let your heart tell the truth. The fact that you are asking is a good thing. Like I said--size matters, condition as well. Wet mint @ 1"--I might go for it. One little flea bite knocks it down to about $75. Of course you will have to consdider any work that has possibly been done to it--bring a lupe and a light and study it, if she objects--walk away. Marble--On!!

The bottom image--the left one on the bottom row, is as I suspected. A nice Akro Agate corkscrew. The same image and row—the middle one. This one needs it’s own post and attention imho Marble—On!!

The left hand one is very nice--check it for UV reaction--it may be an Alley. The right hand one is a Raven imho. More opinions are needed--for sure. Marble--On!!
