Nice agate! This one is full of moons or hit marks from play. Back light this one with a strong pen light--very cool to look at. Marble--On!!

Pretty cool for sure. I am thinking Vitro here. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

I agree cheese. Notice the boring white and red ones--nothing boring there. Just a killer white! This is CAC at its best. Marble--On!!

This one had a ruff life for sure. It may have been bounced off the driveway a few times ( many times). Boulder? Over one inch in size--maybe two inches? Given the images I would call it an older Vacor--no name from me.(Millenium?) Vacor marbles do stand up to abuse--not a Jabo imho. @Mojo might know this one if the size is given. Marble--On!!

This is a well used Vacor imho. There are still many tournaments that use these during competition. I would be hard pressed to call this one a Peltier. The way that the white bleeds off is a good tell for Vacor. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble—On!!

You did very well my marble collecting friend. Thanks for sharing! Marble--On!!

Nice find for sure--- Marble--on!!

Cool it is--very cool! Way back when, these were the first marbles that I ever purchased thinking that they might be a CAC “Guinea". They were in an old chicken coop still covered in detritus and massive dust. Live and learn for sure. I was educated by my own mistakes and the willingness to learn from them—I just love this stuff.! Marble—On!!

X2--nice find! Marble--On!!

I am thinking "Enchanted Forest" by Vacor. I am not familiar with the name "Green Jewel"--educate me here please. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

This type of Pelt does go from quite anemic in the yellow to quite deep and rich. I agree with the former posts here. Nice marble! Marble--On!!

I agree with Alan--the size is right for a double ingot--no doubt--thanks for posting the size. It is not an Akro imho--maybe a Champion--ya never know unless it is in hand with this type. Nice marble--nice find--a keeper for sure. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

It is amazing how close this one looks like a Vacor “Wicked Owl”. Back in the little dimpled part of my memory (like a dried nut—maybe a fruit like a raisin) I remember that Vacor did purchase some Peltier machinery. They (Vacor) more than likely copied it and continue to run such. Imagine trucking this type of machinery to Mexico back in the day. I will defer to @Fire1981 and @Chad G.for a positive ID here—I think Peltier Panda is right on but I am not a name guy. “Miller ” is an older term that seems to have lost some relevance. Back 25-30 years ago—I would call this one a “Miller”--all day long. Marble—On!!

Peltier--no doubt. Peltier marbles were made in Illinois, Ottawa to be specific. They were very successful using what they had in the back yard. I will appreciate any other info as to what the Ottowa plant had in its back yard and why a glass plant was located there. Most marble companies were located in either WV or Ohio because of the abundance of nice working minerals and the major resource of natural gas to fire the furnaces that melted the glass. Marble—On!! s

I will try my best to give some history in each of my posts. I encourage any “older collectors” to do the same. I get it now, many newer collectors and a few older ones. This knowledge needs to be passed on--sometimes I feel like I am talking down to the masses and I need to get out of that mindset. I was raised in this hobby with books--some are right some are wrong but they were the very best that I could find answers with and they were the best at the time for any knowledge achievable. We may all be wrong at some point or another—this is progress—not a mistake, just our best shot. Never be afraid to be wrong—this is called learning in my book. Marble—On!!

Here I go again--quoting myself. It is not what we as collectors would call a "Popeye Patch". I am leaning towards Akro here--from the "digs". It looks half Vitro and half Akro--- a really weird one for sure. (really weird!) This is my best based on the images posted. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more--- Marble--On!!

I applaud this for sure. No dumb questions regarding marbles—maybe some dumb answers—I have given plenty of them but I have always learned from them. Marble—On!!

I was once a “Lurker”--one who looks and is afraid to post. We all welcome you that are hesitant to post here. “TheMarbleConnection” welcomes all that have any questions about marbles. If you feel that you are not welcomed—contact any of us here and we will sort it out for sure. Just show us what you have and be rewarded by some of the very best knowledge available on the "interweb". I love you Lurkers—and I hope that some of you contribute to the hobby by posting what you have to offer—we all learn everyday—from folks such as you. Marble—On!!

X3--- Marble--On!!

This is a weird one but I would sort it as a Vitro. Just my opinion and I hope to see some more on this one. Marble—On!!

The colors are right in your final image. Is there any AV in the black? This is a strange one for sure--I wish that I had it in hand. More opinions are needed for sure. Popeye??--maybe a cross-over, meaning one run that crossed into another run of another marble design. Killer marble for sure. Marble--On!!

I like this stuff--really! Marble--On!!

Yes really! You have some recent Vacor in that bunch---and some really old German handmades as well. Marble--On!!

Names do not mean collectability all of the time. There is nothing wrong with calling this one a Vitro. Kokomo is a very cool name--but a hard one to catch up with imho. If my career was made collecting Kokomos—I would have about 100 marbles and a lot of lost time not collecting others. Collect what you like and of course— Marble—On!!

Lets ask @Nantucketdink for a link or two for a better Idea here. There are a few older links that ID these quite well. They are hard to keep up with unless you have a passion for them. Marble--On!!
