  1. This one is just over ¾”. I have compared this one to three other marbles weight wise expecting it to be lighter. I compared it to a Banded agate, an Akro Oxblood and Lemonade and an old German that are all within very-very close measurement of the one in question. I expected the Gutta? to be lighter----not Here are the results. Gutta? 14 grams Banded Agate 12 Grams Akro 10 Grams German 9 Grams I know, who in the heck weighs marbles—I do—“Gutta Percha” are made with Paper Mache as far as I know. This one came from a reputable person from an overseas trade. No description was with it. Let me know what you all think! Thanks and--- Marble—On!!
  2. Vacor--I agree. I wish that I could give you a name. It is a very nice large example--the big ones will have a tendancy to act differently--usually to the worst end--yours is to the best end. Marble--On!!
  3. Thanks all, Akro it is! Marble--On!!
  4. OK, not fake. I apreciate all of the input. Marble--On!!
  5. 23/32”—size always matters—LOL. This is a nice patch that is just filled with AV. Maybe a relative to those over the top Masters that show no patch structure. Tell me what you think. Marble—On!!
  6. These are cool—of course they are---- I purchased them😁. This is a new thing for me—fake dug marbles. I believe that these were torched and melted down for the final effect. The flat one had a finish on it which I scraped off with my finger nail. It looks much better without it. (I can still see a few hit marks under the surface) They came from a reputable seller that also questioned them—“may be dug” was in the title. This is a cool idea with a nice finished product—who does this stuff?? Have you ever seen it before?? Marble—On!!
  7. Very cool my marble collecting friend! Marble--On!!
  8. Nice shot of the new one--now I am thinking Akro. Cool and different looking marbles for sure. Marble--On!!
  9. I have always been a sucker for these with the metal edges--this one came with instructions--had to have it, hoping that a nod to Akro was in the the print--not. I just love this stuff!!! Marble--On!!
  10. Master imho. I am guessing 9/16" or 5/8"--size always matters. Marble--On!!
  11. These may be Champion. Marble--On!!
  12. Thanks all for all of the input!! Marble--On!!
  13. This one is a bit beat up but I think that it is a Rainbo. Full of the sparkly stuff. Marble--On!!
  14. Here are two that I think derserve a name---or a maker😁. The right hand one has me guessing??? Maybe Rainbow instead of Rainbo?? Marble--On!!
  15. Thanks fire here are a few better looks. Marble--On!!
  16. Thanks peltier Mibber--here are a few better images. Marble--On!!
  17. Thanks Chad "Broken corkscrew" was my add. You fooled me with a "Jorkscrew"--- Not these--nimble mind--but I did remember--eventually. The PPP was there because I forgot that I put it in the bunch
  18. Yes, a very nice marble! Marble--On!!
  19. The first one is odd with those big straight cut-marks. I would probably sort it as a Master. The second one is odd too—it could be a messy Conqueror. Marble—On!!
  20. Well, you convinced me Steph. The blue is always next to the red on the MK pictured--a trait? Marble--On!1
