  4. X2 on the first one. The second may be a "newer MK"---- a weak "Painted Turtle"? Lets ask @Melissa for her input--the images are not very good. Marble--On!!
  5. It is a Pelt--no doubt. I am not a very good name guy--lets ask @Fire1981 for a name. Nice find!! Marble--On!!

  7. I was lost at "wispy" for a long time my marble collecting friend. Clear vs white intertwined--enough said. Marble--On!!
  8. This one is a very nice one--I do not see any Oxblood in the images. A very nice Rainbow imho. @Melissa??? I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  9. Not a Master imho nor a Vitro--the long cutlines do add up but the colors do not. Pelt "Liberty" Imho. @Fire1981??? I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  10. Nice marble! They are all tough to find--this one is special--very nice. Thanks for sharing it. Marble--On!!
  11. Show me the black--this one is an Akro slag imho--green and white--no black--Backlight it and show some more images. I have a bad feeling about this one. Nice marble--just not quite right with the finish. Size always matters---- Marble--On!!
  12. It appear to have the Vitro qualities-Conquerer--hmmm? Marble--On!!
  13. Not a slag--a Wvs--common but nice. Marble--On!!
  14. Not a slag--a wvs of some type. Nice marble! Marble--On!!
  15. There is little room for embarrassment here my friends. Fire will not put up with Itā€”ever. Give what you have and enjoy some ā€œCamaraderieā€. New friends, in this weird field of collecting marbles is always a good thing. This place is safe and we all try to keep it that way. @bumblebee @Chad G. and I @akroorka will give our best always to keep the riff-raff out. Contribute to the post and be rewarded--sometimes post's, some times a little money helps too. I just remembered my lack of investment here, I usually invest in June--oh well here goes. It was a ruff year pain--wise--here we go! This is not a cheap operation. Marbleā€”On!!

    Peltier?

    WVS X2. I have had one or two of these cross my path--I love -em--no Idea who made them--Chad is right on as far as I am concerned. Backlight them all. Here is a link to an affordable marble ā€œback lighterā€. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07V5TV9DF/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Marbleā€”On!!
  17. I always count white as a color--what about clear?? Oh no-- here we go again. Marble--On!!
  18. I would call this one an Akro Slag. Sorry, I got off a bit with my wondering mind. Marble--On!!
  19. I like the colors! I have had a few pass through my hands--WVS--no maker from me. Lets ask @cheese for an opinion. Marble--On!!
  20. Jabo imho--nice one though! I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  21. Merry Pelt Christmas Trees! Nice group! Check for any sharp blowholes on any Peltā€”they are generally rounded at the edges of the blow outā€”just glass and the way that it works. If it is sharpā€”it may have been polished. Show us what you find. Nice Marbles--some of my favorites. Marbleā€”On!!
  22. I suspect that these marbles were at the very least--"Buffed". Maybe a practice group? I have a bad feeling about these. Hard to tell the maker. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  23. Image one is classic--we have to see it straight on--from the top. When one marble hits another (Glass is actually a hard liquid check out old glass windowsā€”it does flow) the result is a ā€œMoonā€. This one I suspect is a ā€œmoonā€ that that ā€œbroke outā€ around the perimeter like an asteroid hitting our Earthā€™s Moon itself. It was more than likely a direct hit, no glancing or angles involved. The result is an impact zone that defies my explanation or knowledge. The middle stays semi intact, pushing into the glass itself (like a small rise or even to the surface of the original marble). The rest explodes outwards in a semi circleā€”never to be found again) except by someoneā€™s foot . Glass is always in motion, if you could place a marble on a stable area and come back 1000 years later it would be flatā€”or flatter. Yes I know ā€“pretty deepā€”no lies hereā€”just glass research. If you are lucky enough to find a blow out or moon that has the center involved as originalā€”you are luckyā€”valueā€”well, cool if you think like me. Marbleā€”On!!
  24. I cannot speak for Fire or schmoozer but you will not be embarrassed by anything that I get in the mail. I will do my best to not overwhelm anyone involvedā€”just cool marbles. I am sure schmoozer and Fire are right on with this. It is not about getting but giving as well. I like to include a hard to ID marble in these tradesā€”niceā€”just hard to ID. I did this years ago on ā€œNans boardā€( anyone remember this one?). We did individual marbles and someone out there gave me the very first marble that she ever made by handā€”pretty cool to receive on my end! I just love this stuff. Marbleā€”On!!
  25. I agree--x2 for sure. Nice find. Marble--On!!
