Me too--blue av is pretty rare--- Cool find in any marble--Vitro is my choice here. Marble--On!!

A Vacor "Twister" imho--a very nice one for this size! Marble--On!!

I looked at this one hard and had to step away for a moment or several and had to come back to look. It is an Akro Tri-Colored Patch type imho—pretty weird and very cool imho. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble—On!!

@Ric knows these better than I do, but I would probably sort this one as a Vitro. The blue is intense for any marble maker--hard to tell here. It is a nice one regardless of the ID. Marble--On!!

They are both Vacor imho. The top image--the top one-- a Vacor "Dragon". The second one is what I would call a “Jungle” made by Vacor. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble—On!!

I have never seen one in hand--- Merry Christmas--I think that you have a Vacor "Santa" here. Nice marble! Nice find! I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

This one is a "Wavebreaker" made by Vacor. I am not a big fan of iridescent marbles but this model breaks the banks for me. A very nice marble these--just a joy to hold and look at. Marble--On!!

It is a "Fiesta"-- Vintage or modern? Hard to tell. This is a nice one regardless. Marble--On!!

Keep them coming! Marble--On!!

You just Put an @ before the user name and wait for it to come up--you may have to scroll a bit. Marble--On!!

I just love this cool old stuff--time for bed though-- Marble--On!!

Stone Agates were made in California for sure--this would be a big one though. Have you ever seen the images of these poor lads laying on a bench grinding and polishing? You never know do you? Marble--On!!

Well--if you cannot get an ID from these images--I give up==great job! Alley Agate is what I would call it. Marble--On!!

The rest of the marbles that you show are macine made. They came out of a large furnace containing the same glass, were cutoff by a machine and rounded by a machine. The "Chalkey" that you show would have been picked out and disgarded by quality control--some were no doubt missed. It has been observed that this may have been a result of being buried over the years and a result of that--who really knows?\ All Marbles have two cutoff points. Some may look like pontils--but pontils are a handmade term only. Marble--On!!

On this latest green one image #3 and #4 show where it was cut off . One end was as made, slightley rounded by hand and one was ground. It was more than likely gathered by hand out of a pot of glass and cut off by hand by a shears and barely rounded by hand—no machines involved here—man made. The Ground part was just sticking out too far to be at least semi round. A pretty cool find imho.

X2 now that we can see the poles. Nice marble this one!! Marble--On!!

Yes, The definition between the colors which are melding would be sharper with a Pelt. The red has a blackish overtone which no doubt can be found in a Pelt—just more defined in a Pelt--- more common in a Vacor. I have to admit though—if I found it in a low light situation—like in an antique mall—I would be hard pressed without a flashlight to pass on it. Marble—On!!

I would not call it a Pelt--WVS works for me Fire. Marble--On!!

It is an Akro "Silver Oxblood" Linda Gail---very good eye!! Condition is everything though. I think that there is another Akro or two involved here--it may be a "Blue Oxblood" but the images do not support it. Not a bad bunch of marbles. Marble--On!!

Unreal!! I wish that you gave some more defined images here. It is a simple Rainbo---but just a killer--just special! Marble--On!!

I will comment on the first image and the last one as well in the OP. The first is a nice corkscrew and the last one qualifies as a----- Agreed. Nice find--it may have been found in a bag of sold/marketed marbles vs one from a dig. Very cool find! Marble--On!!

Page 124 in "Peltier Glass Toy Marbles"-The book. Great find--no name. Marble-On!!

Hard to tell the difference between any clays. There is one expert that I know of. @akronmarbles---- Marble--On!!

I agree--a big Vacor Cat. Marble--On!!

This one is a MK Melissa. An older one perhaps but I see no Peltier here. Great marble! I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
