Cool looking marbles for sure. The one with the yellow involved is a poorly made cateye imho—still a cool find—no maker from me. The other one—if it was intended to be a “bead” would have a hole through it more often than not. It is an odd duck and it reminds me of a “bullet mold” marble. Marble—On!!

More than likely Alley Agate--the Robins egg blue and white may be a Heaton. More opinions are needed and always welcomed. Marble--On!!

X2. Marble--On!!

If you are convinced that this one is glass--I would call it beginners try at making a marble with a torch. I like it! Marble—On!!
-
I think that the two darker ones are contemporary—made to look like old—the larger one may be a WVS. No “bullet molds” here at the least--imho. I appreciate all opinions and wish for some more. Nice marbles and size matters here. Marble—On!!

Vacor is a part of "Glasfirma"--they make the marbles. I do not think that these that you posted are Vacor marbles. I wish that I had some to compare with yours in this size--not. They are nice marbles and I would not call them Cateyes. More opinions are needed and welcomed. Sometimes a few from the deep South America's or Europe will show up and flabergast us all. Marble--On!!

This one is a WVS--more opinions are needed. Bump! Marble--On!!

This one is not too obvious--good job! 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!!

X3--just a fold as part of the marble making process. 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!!
