  1. Consider Vacor here--a "Rooster" of some sort. Marble--On!!
  2. "Mill Balls" were used in the polishing process of a variety of items. Throw what ever into a revolving tank with these and they get polished. It still happens today in some sort. Cool find! Marble--On!!
  3. Very nice find Fire! I would be fired up too. Marble--On!!
  4. The green and yellow here are deep colors. Nice "Popeye" Marble--On!!
  5. Vacor it is imho. These "Roosters" come in a bunch of different shades and names. Some are more translucent than yours, some have transparent base glass (red of course). These bigger ones will no doubt show a more opaque base glass just because of the depth. This is of course my opinion, and I appreciate them all. Marble—On!!
  6. I am overdue to welcome you here @TheMarbleConnection John. Welcome and show us what you have--this is a fun place to be but never expect immediate answers. This is not Facebook--we are older and slower but still have the best info on the web imho😁. Marble--On!!
  7. I will chime in on the first one. This is a Master "Comet" imho. Lets test the last one also--either a Jabo Classic---or I do not know😁. I appreciate all comments and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  8. I would call the Cat eyes by Vacor (Mexico). Nice bunch! Marble--On!!
  9. This is a very nice share--Thanks! Marble--On!!
  10. A nice wagon to ride Fire. Keep it coming! Marble--On!!
  11. Ohhh--you upped the anty? I will comment on the first one--mor un-absorbed minerals that are commonly called AV--not intentional though imho. I think that the fianl one may be an Imperial(maybe a Vacor) @Melissa or @Mojowill have an opinion here for sure. Nice change up!
  12. This is the best answer imho. Lick it! ( I would--what the heck?) And find out for sure. Marble--On!!
  13. Yes these Michaelangelo were often confused with Pelts--this one is the real deal-- a Peltier. Nice marble!! Marble--On!!
  14. Big long cutlines--breaks at the cutlines showing white below--hmmm. I would call this one a Vitro. I have never seen one this out of round--pretty cool. Marble--On!!
  15. Yep--pretty weird. A "patch confetti". There are very few folks that can ID a "Vitro Confetti" if that is what you are thinking. Butttttt-this one looks like it came from a dig to me. Hold on to it for the future "what ifs" imho. Nice find and great investigation! Marble--On!!
  16. Slags have one color in the base glass and white--such as purple and white, green and white yellow and white-etc-- the base glass is always transparent. Marble--On!!

    Akro?

    This one is an Akro cork that was cought not corking by quality control. A dug Akro--- imho of course. Nice marble! Marble--On!!
  18. Yep! Marble--On!!
  19. Nice one! Marble--On!!
  20. If we here cannot ID a marble from your images--all is lost-- Great job! Marble--On!!
  21. Akro--from the digs. Nice find!
  22. Killer Chinese---I love it! Marble--On!!
  23. Good Job @Ric getting this sheen on an image ID--- an almost impossible thing to do ( I ahve tried many times to no avail). I often wondered about some of the later "Vintage" marbles such as Champion, Vitro, MK and of course Jabo that had this sheen to them. Vacor does their own thing. I wonder if it may have come from cullet of some sort. I know, it was supposed to be a spray on the marbles while on the rollers, that created this sheen but so many later versions had this sheen--it just makes me think--what if? @Alan usually has an answer--let’s call him up Marble--On!!
