This one is not too obvious--good job! Marble--On!!
-
You are getting it my marble collecting friend. We all have been there--just keep on keepin on. Nice Pelt Rainbo! Marble--On!!
-
X3--it looks like a dug marble or at least one that came out of a home furnace. Love it--Nice one! Marble--On!!
-
I Agree-- Marble--On!!
-
That is a nice marble. It may be a Vitro Opal. Just my opinion. I respect all opinions and hope for more. Marble--On!!
-
They may just be "Master Glass Cateyes". Master Glass cats were all over the place with fill and bubbles as well. Size matters here. Marble--On!!

The "Score!" thread. Post your exciting finds here...
akroorka replied to bumblebee's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
I agree. The way that the transparent color covers the yellow in some places confirms it for me. Nice one for sure. Marble--On!! -
A what?---Google does not even know this one. Marble--On!!
-
I agree, not a cateye. It may be a Master Made marble but the first image makes me lean a bit towards a foreign made marble( english?). I am not used to seeing Master Made marbles fold in on the cutoff like this. Marble--On!!

The "chromic" finish on this one locks it down. Newer MK x 3. Nice marble!! Marble--On!!

Nice group Boris64, More images are needed of the ones that you wish to be "Popeyes". They are Akro corks for sure--one is very nice indeed. The "shooters"--if you are talking about the second image--are both nice Vitros. Your last image--the orangish/black one--needs some further investigation and images as well. Marble--On!!

I do not see Pelt here. I suck at WVS ID but I know a WVS when I see one--or two. It is a 75% chance that these are both Alley Agate marbles. Marble--On!!

This one may be a Vacor. Vacor names many/most of their marbles but not always. Vacor tumbles many marbles rather than throw them out imho--- and puts them in nets of “mixed” marbles. This one looks like a “White Tiger” that was “tumbled/frosted”--- just a way of improving the final product did not meet up with company specs. It is just a matter of putting them in a mix of sand/etc and making them come out with a flat finish through a tumbler of some sorts. This is just my opinion and no facts are backing this up— All opinions are welcomed and appreciated. I just love this stuff— Marble—On!!

All are Alley Agate imho. Marble--On!!

This one may just be a Vacor "Fire"--Yes-they named a marble after you!!! Ooops maybe the wrong color base glass---or not! Marble--On!!

Happy New Year 2023 show some weird!!

Nice ones Dave13--Happy New Year to you! Marble--On!! -
These are not corkscrews. I wish that I could tell you what they are. Marble--On!!

This one is a "Patch" William. Akro made many "patches". I would not call it a game marble--ever. Akro made some very fine game marbles that are usually free from any striping or streaking. The Fire Opals/Flinties will all look opalescent at some point--some more so than others. The colors matter here. Some of these look more transparent than opaque. They all have some "fire" when backlit. The dark green ones are a hard tell, they do look very opaque until you backlight them--then they light up with a big "fisheye" effect that proves the human eye wrong. I wish that I could get this fisheye thing down with an image--not yet--maybe soon. Here is an image of four colors of Flinties--they all look pretty opaque---until you backlight them Marble--On!!

Nice colors and very nice images--- Marble--On!!

akroorka replied to rockgardenplants's topic in Marble I.D.'s
