Thats a big marble and I just love it for what it may be. I suggest that this is an older Vitro that had some fire damage either from a house fire or just an old fire pit. The marbles out of outhouse digs would not show this type of wear---well, maybe they would according to the acidity of the givers🙃 Nice marble regardless— Marble—On!!

I cannot help here--it looks like a dug jabo to me--there were never any dug Jabo---yet--LOL. Marble-On!!

This one is an Akro imho. It was undergound for awhile imho. Marble--On!!

Champion? Marble--On!!

Please refer to the the folks here by the prefered avatar names, rather than the actual real name that you may be privy too. I am privy to all of the actual names here and if you catch me calling them out--name me in capital letters. I can always take a lump or two--maybe three yet🫣. Marble--On!!

Peltier, as far as I know, made many models in a pee-wee size. So why not include these?. Marble--On!!

Black ashtrays is a general term. Akro made many ashtrays in many different sizes and shapes..... Here is a Black Akro Ashtray, part of another company’s line of popup cigarettes novelties. I have had this one for some time, the cigs were more like a buck 50 back then---yuck. You can backlight this glass and it will shine through—as black—only black. Akro—On!!

I always thought that vitro made these--no names come to mind. It could also be a wonky Jabo. Marble--On!! -
Imp X3--Marble--On!!

It would be refered to a a guinea type at the least. Lots of these are produce by a variety of folks. This one is a bit odd with all of the wear that it shows. It is worth putting in your pocket and bringing to a show. Marble--On!!

This is a nice example of a marble that I have never seen before. You may look at the oxblood and overlook the white. It is quite a nice white--deep and rich. This one was made with a torch involved imho and my first impression was a "Bulgarian". Do not get me wrong--I just love it--it is just not that old. This is one that I would not mind holding in hand--very cool! I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Check for a signature here. Marble--On!!

Great stuff here shiroaiko, A great share! I get lazy too--today I am quite lazy but my fingers still work. I was never a typist--click, click, click, one by one😁. -
Several companies made "Corals"--they are pretty cool to hold and look at--I think that Champion made a version as well. I could be wrong but---I just like-em and never really cared who made them. Marble--On!!

They are both CAC imho--no names are applied to these. They are not too shabby for a more common CAC swirl. Marble--On!!

Jinx Fire😁. Marble--On!!

Interesting stuff here my marble collecting friend. The chunk that is missing tells a tale that I cannot decipher. This one may be made from stone?? Does it feel cold to the touch vs a glass marble? Marble—On!!

I just love a dark cobalt blue on a white base. I did my bathroom in these colors quite a few years back--I still love it.( it did used to be brown--yuk) I would consider this one an Alley Agate but as always--more opinions are needed and appreciated. Marble--On!!
