  1. I love a good blow hole in a Pelt--really quite normal in my experience. This one is not a "peewee" closer to 5/8" imho--maybe larger This one is a huge blow hole--love it! @Fire1981 and I love this stuff! Marble--On!!
  2. I agree--not much monetery value here--but being "Grandmas"--well worth keeping in a jar in the window. Marble--On!!
  3. "Why" is why you post here--the answers are always close to the heart at "The Marble Connection". We all love a seperate base of these cute little orbs and all are willing to give the best regardless of any ego involved. Few toes are stepped on here--we all respect each other and this is what makes this place so great. I just love this stuff--Akro especially. Marble--On!!
  4. Good eye VaMarbles--I agree--more images are needed--sharper and just a few at a time please. Marble--On!!
  5. Sorry Mojo, I cannot get past that purple Veli in image #5—just a killer marble. I agree with Chad on the others. Marble—On!!
  6. Size always matters—nuff said. I looked at this one for a long, long, long--- time. More images are needed of the cut marks imho but---I do think that Akro Agate is not out of the question. These are Akro colors--a very weird combo but very cool indeed---very cool!!! Popeye??---backlight it in any future images—maybe—but who cares really. A really nice nice marble!!! Marble—On!!
  7. I am right there with Al--very nice cats! Marble--On!!
  8. There is no such thing as a boring marble thread as far as I consider--I love them all! I love "bennies" but my wife loves them more. Here is and old box that I found for her treasures. Marble--On!!
  9. You may have fallen but this is what collecting is about--- I just love this stuff!! Marble--On!!
  10. Carnelian Oxblood or Oxblood Carnelian imho. There should be no UV reaction as I recall---Nice find! Marble--On!!
  11. Jabo was my first thought then I saw the wear on this one, a blow hole, out of round? Maybe a beach find Jabo? I cannot call this one--nice find. Marble--On!!
  12. Cool corkscrew!! Marble--On!!
  13. This marble crosses some lines between CAC and Alley Agate. Size always matters. It looks like a CAC to me. Lets call in @Chad G. and @cheese for some more evaluations. Nice images--nice marbles Marble-On!!
  14. I am confident that it is not Fire---WVS probably an Alley. Marble—On!!
  15. Welllll--it is not a MK--or a Vitro imho. It is a slag---maybe a CAC-lets call in @Chad G. and @cheese here-- I just love this suff. I will call this one an Akro slag. Marble--On!!
  16. Never shame away from Vacor imho. Marble--On!!
  17. Lets call @Chad G. back on this one--I am far from a handmade expert but this one seems awfully small to me. Thanks, it looks real to me--but what I said counts for sure---size wise.
  18. Here is a good black unmarked find that I made many years ago--pretty cool imho. The cigs are gross--oh well--part of the thing. Akro on!!
  19. I searched Melissa and this is my result. Your "swirl" appears to be a later run MK that did not turn out as intended. I hope to be corrected by @stephenb (I hope this is right). Nice marble--Nice Find--pretty rare imho. I just love this stuff!!! Marble--On!!
  20. No answers means--stumped imho. Jabo is way too easy here---- Nice images and a very nice ---very nice comparison. These were both made by the same manufacturer imho. The colors do not matter –the machinery does. There is some green AV in the right hand one but this is common with any maker world-wide. The green colors show up with AV or un-diluted (melted) colors from the recipe of the color it-self. (not really too common in Jabo believe it or not) I would call these both European made—probably from England. Just mho—Marble—On!!
