Here is a ¾” marble from the “Last Dance” Jabo Tribute run from 12/16 2008. Do not ask me the name; I am lucky enough to know the run date. Love it— Marble—On!!

The OP is an odd one and I am a little surprised that MK was not mentioned, consider it done. More opinions are needed and welcomed. Marble—On!!

Vitro :) Would this be considered a type 2 Tiger Eye, or no?

OK then, addicted you are! Keep them coming is all that I can say. We all love this stuff. Marble--On!!

I would eat it in a minute--or three over coals. I love the throwback it will spawn and grow many more. Fresh water fish--what a blessing!

There are many sellers that come here for ID's, what better place in my opinion. I buy online and welcome you as a seller that is trying to represent. WARNING!! Many sellers that come here become collectors☠️. I welcome you and your honesty--keep them coming! Marble--On!!

Oh, you will get better, with no doubt. We were all where you are now--some just forget--I remember trying to ID corkscrews and it took some time until I was confidant. Now I can spot them without my glasses. Pick what you like and research them--they will stick out like a sore thumb before you know it. Put the rest aside until tommorrow/next year or so on. Something will just click and away you go. Research is the key and there is way more info to research today than there was while I was growing up--- in marbles ID that is---some info is good in these times but there is alot more that is bad. This hobby/addiction is not one that is learned as fast as todays society wants it to be. Patience is our motto in the world of Marble collecting. You will find what you want sooner or later--even in these later years. This is the place to check out the bad research vs the good. Keep them coming and never be sorry for posting.

Akro, Corkscrew yes? I just need to get 1 right lol
akroorka replied to NeozLilBallz's topic in Marble I.D.'s
I just love to see any corkscrew--Nice find!! Marble--On!! -
OOOhhh, This is a tuff one and I do not blame anyone for laying off. I will suggest Akro Agate just because of the rounded cutoff marks. Akro and Master, especially in the earlier years had very similar patches and colors. Marble—On!!

I want to call this oxblood--not too sure though. Not an Akro IMHO. Nice marble--WVS in my opinion. All opinions are appreciated. Marble--On!!

I have rescued cats, dogs, turtles in the road and a variety of other critters that just, well needed it—why not a marble? I figured that this one would end up in a landfill if I did not bring it home and I believe that it deserves it. I posted this one a while back, these are new images. I have not put this one away since I received it and today I really checked it out. Two ground pontils and a hair under 1 inch. Any advice on it’s maker is appreciated. Marble—On!! -
Yes, I thought the same thing—Polished in a bad manner. I magnified this one and found an original dimple with smooth edges. “Pocket Wear” it is. It is now with my “Coral” collection --- I just love Coral colored marbles. Marble—On!!
