This is a classic example of a veneered marble. Notice the white that shows in the cutlines. If you were to break this one open it would be all white inside. I think that @Melissa has some input to share here. Marble—On!!

Vitro Oxblood is a bit weird--if it were mine--I would call it ox for sure. Of course, I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

Pretty funny Ric. I agree with Jabo--lol. Marble--On!!

Al and Ric are right one with this one. It is a nice find and a great ask--a keeper--these are quite old and getting harder and harder to find. Marble--On!!

"Just Corks" are you kidding--these are Akro Corkscrews---the best marble ever made. Marble--On!!

There are slags and there are SLAGS!!! Very Nice!! This is number two on my list--Number one is an "Electric Yellow" CAC. Marble--On!!

Alox sounds right that was my first thought-- Marble-On!!

The white--at least some of it here, is opalescent. I have an eye for this stuff—just sayin. Great marble! Marble—On!!

The clearity of the glass makes me push towards a USA made classic of some sort. It has big bubbles though and one not quite finished cutmark--kinda ruff really. If the second image on the left if a cut-line along with the third image on the left--a slight "V"--Vitro--no name. Nice find--no better ID from me at least. @Ric is right on again. Marble--On!!

X2-- a weird dug Vitro. Marble--On!!

Just my opinion here, It is not an Akro, not a CAC, not a Jabo---- Marble--On!!

This is no regular Rainbo but it is a Pelt imho. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more--. @Chad G.? Marble--On!!

I collect corals--this one would be included--just barely though. Nice marble!!

Lets call in @cheese for an opinion here. Cheese contributed to the book by Eddie and Kim Winnigham--"West Virginia Swirls" is the title. Great book and worth the money--He is the handsome guy with the "goatee" on the cover--lol. Eddie is not so bad looking himself😁. Well ---moving on--he knows his stuff pretty well. Thanks for all that you all do! Nope--not me--just good looking humans is all that I am saying. Marble--On!!

Yep--me too. Just when you give up--you find one for $5---ya never know do you? Akro --On!!

Your images make it easy for us all. Good job once again! Marble--On!!

Nice matble! Marble--On!!

It is hard to pick a favorite here--Nice marbles for sure. ( I like the second one) Marble--On!!

Killer "two tab" schmoozer! These little ashtrays always amaze me with the variety of shades and colors involved--almost as many as a corkscrew. Some of these come with an amazing amount of Ox or UV and many line up with the more rare corks/akros such as oxblood and lemonade. I just love these things. We used to hunt these but just like corks--there are a lot of "commons". Thanks for sharing it--great find. Marble--On!!

I have not hunted for awhile but I did the same. I have butchered beef, pigs and chickens/etc. I do not mind it a bit and actually--I love doing it. It is an art. Doing it yourself--nothing gets wasted--nothing. I miss a good neck roast--slow and low.

Are you fricking kidding? Or has AI taking over here? You know that we will se the real thing in the not too distant future. Cool stuff! Marble--On!!

The "Imperials" are less refined as far as the seams go. You can feel them with your fingernail. The Master Marbles--both the older and the newer versions show the seam in a smoother, more refined fashion. There are always exceptions--Imperials came from a multitude of machines in quite a variety of countries. The colors also play a role here, but the Imperials are quite close in many occasions. Master Marbles were made to compete with the stone Agates, so they had to stand up—very hard glass. “Imperials” were made to compete with the world—just a glass marble—ho hum. Marble—On!!

I carried this one in my pocket at work for many years to help keep me grounded. I still have it on my desk--maybe I should start carrying it again. Marble--On!!

Solitary Checkers--two of them. One has Akro marbles, the other has Vitro marbles. The west coast must have been trying to keep up? Who knows--just a cool find. Marble--On!!

It is 5”X 5”, made of glass, mold pressed no doubt and the little glass marbles are ¼’. Some of the marbles still have remnants of a seam that looks to be from a “bullet mold”—go figure. The glass plate has two sides, one square and one diamond. There are no markings on the box or paper work but the glass is mold stamped, “REGISTERED”, “REGISTRE”, “MADE IN”, “CZECHO-SLOVAKIA”.
