That left hand one is one of the hardest for me to ID. Nice marbles--both are WVS. No names from me. Nice ones though. More opinions are needed here. Marble--On!!

"Flicker" meaning less than five flame points--well, two flame points would not make it but I agree with three--a flicker type. Nice find! Marble--On!!

Foreign for sure. Marble--On!!

Augers should have been named "driil bits". Less confusion. Think of a driil bit, they are alway solid in the middle. Nice marble!

The thing between Master and Akro patches that I have noticed is that Master has about a 1/3-to 2/3 coverage. Akro are usually 50-50. This is just an observation that I have made over the years. It is not a Pelt. Marble--On!!

Industrial marbles/spheres were used to polish a variety of items that needed to be touched up and quite frankly, polished. This included many varieties of metal as well that needed a final round of polish to get to the final sales. This is a bigger one, I am familiar with the 7/8” or the ¾” ones and these were called “Railroad” marbles for some reason that I may have forgotten. There may have been an accident that spilled these on the tracks somewhere. Marble—On!!

These are classic Akro cut lines that you display here. Nice find! Marble--On!!

Weird stuff, how we can get together and figure this stuff out. They all look the same to me. Great job tkt. Marble--On!!

These are all very nice examples. Akro made a "baby blue" oxblood corkscrew. The ox was the cork. Keep an eye out, they usually have some busted out Oxblood. Marble--On!!

I still use loupes once in awhile. I have an old Bausch and Lomb. It is 8x with a screw in that pushes it to X18. @x18 it gets pretty shaky for me, then my eyes start bleeding (not really but it sure feels like it). I had to use the new desk mounted lighted magnifier that I recived for Fathers day to read the markings on it though. I do not use magnification often but it sure comes in handy when I get a sliver. Marble on!!

Well, it is a very nice Akro Popeye and they made them for a reason. To show up in low light etc, while shooting them to pieces in a ring. Both are nice. Marble--On!!

Cool Beans! I should have started collecting marbles when I was fourteen. Oh well, at least my wife puts up with it. Marble--On!!

Lashes come from dull cutters for sure but some other makers show these as well. Master would be second on my list. I have even seen them on Vacor marbles. Every marble maker has a run -em till they bust mentality. Marble--On!!

If you need a bump, I will try to respond. This one is a Master "Sunburst"imho. Nice marble--feel it and enjoy it, It is very old. (they always feel colder to me) Marble--On!!

A "Serpent it is"--a later model--like today almost. These "Serpents" come in a wide variety of shades of colors and they have been made for a long long time and quite a variety of runs. They have always been a popular marble made by Vacor. Marble--On!!

This one is not hand-gathered. @YasudaCollector may give you some info here but I think that it is a WVS that was made by a variety of makers. As always-I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. marble--On!!

I collect what I like and if you like this one take no offense. I give marbles away all of the time--even if I like them,someone else may like them even more. I am not married to many marbles--a few poutches and boxes but I am not a seller--just a simple collector that loves seeing folks enjoy marbles. If I were a rich man I would do the same. It is a lucky marble to any one that recieves it--you included. Accept any apologies that may be in order here. I in no way, tried to disrepect your passion for collecting. Keep it up and keep coming back with what you like to share. Marble--On!!

The "Pinchers" have less defined/ruff cutmarks and the Masters are more than often more smooth or less likley to be felt with your fingernail. Marble--On!!

Your flash is overtaking the seams here and that is all that we have to go by on this one. Take a few shots out in the sun tommorow. I agree, it does look like AV and I want to know how many colors are involved AV wise. Get back to us with better images. (have I ever said that to you before?) Not--you do a great job but we need more for this one to get a proper ID. I am drooling to find out and I am sure that @Fire1981 is as well. Marble--On!!

Or above--lol. We can not always go by the colors as cutlines. The cutlines are determined by the glass cut marks and not the colors. I am leaning towards a Master Made Marble here but I am still not convinced. A great "patch type" or "injection type" is yet to be determined here imho. Marble--On!!

I do not have any red "germans" but the color is not Akro, Cac or Pelt imho----or Vacor and those "Roosters" came in a wide variety of reds. Marble--On!!

Nie "Allred". Marble--On!!

You are showing some very nice middle of the line Alleys here and I agree with Ric on his assumptions here. marble--On!!

It is a nice Peltier regardless of the name. Marble--On!!

X3--nice find!! Marble--On!!
