Yes, Just Akro Flinties imho. (this type may have been marketed under different names by Akro) I have backlit thousands of solid marbles (almost ever one that I have) just looking for Flinties. Marble--On!!

Surprise--- Surprise, These types were the very first purchase of marbles that I ever made, after buying my first marble book. Years ago and lessons ago for sure (I thought that they may be CAC Guineas’--lol). Soooo--- the first marbles that I ever put money down on were Vacors. I am guessing late 80’s, when times were tuff and money was short. They were in a dusty old barn building and they were covered in detritus. I did not pay much but the education started with these. It took me quite awhile to find out anything about Vacor Marbles, so here we are, in a new age. Marble—On!!

Thanks and welcome back for sure. Marble--On!!

I am pretty sure that the last one is a Jabo--not a contract marble--one from production. The other two need more opinions. Marble--On!!

This link may help. https://biblefreak.org/Marbles/jabo-gallery/ Marble--On!!

Here are a pair of BG Guineas. Marble--On!!

Funny thing--this was my nickname as a kid🙃.

Thanks back--for sharing yours--nice box! Marble--On!!

I just checked out the website and I am wondering?? https://www.briangrahamglass.com/marbles/ Marble--On!!

All that I can say is---Ouch!! Marble--On!!

The hit marks on this one are not consistant with a Jabo imho. Are you sure that it does not fit in with a Pelt made marble? Marble--On!!

X3 with Melissa and Chad. That is a nice looking Jabo from the production runs imho--not a contract marble. Marble--On!!

The first one is a Pelt imho--"Red Zebra" More opinions are needed and welcomed here. The second one---is some make of WVS imho. Many more opinions are needed here. Marble--On!!

Welcome Sortitallout, The size narrows it down to either an Alley agate, a Vacor or a Jabo--Akro made some big ones--just not here imho. The construction reminds me of Jabo---a weird one but imho a Jabo “Classic” . Nice find! I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marb;e—On!!

I have still not had the balls to restore this one. It may be better off just left alone. I am getting the urge to just leave it and be happy with it--a rare thing deserves it. Marble—On!!

X2--nice marble!! Marble--On!!

Join the club atombaum--been there done that! By the way--Welcome to the Marble Connection! Marbles are the ultimate in my world--hard and easy-- or easy and hard. Reasearchers we all are and will continue to be. We all share here--show us what you have! Three or four at a time. Marble--On!!

I would like to see it as well--It may trump your entire collection, as nice as it is. Marble--On!!

We were all glad to come across this site at one point in time or another. Welcome-- and show us what you have! Marble--On!!

I agree--Nice call Peltier Mibber! Marble--On!

I agree---- all are Pelts and Chad knows his Pelt names. Marble--On!!

NTS or--not too shabby! Marble--On!!

X2 nice marble! I wish that I knew where these came from--I was sleeping then. Marble--On!!

The "Fish eye effect" is only seen during backlighting. It is not the little slits that the marble shows. When you backlight a "Moonie or a "Flintie", it will show you what you are looking for-- a "Fisheye". Just roll it around under the backlight and it will show its eye--unreal--really unreal. Jus PM me for one and I will send it--these are under appreciated marbles and over ID'd imho. Marble--On!!

Yes.
