I agree with Fire----Bee-Wasp MK sounds right to me!! Marble--On!!

Just my humble opinion, The left one is a Pelt the right one is an MK. More opinions are always welcomed. Marble--On!!

The camera flash revealed what may or may not be AV in this one. I put my binoculars on and it was hard to find—it may be micro bubbles and it may be AV, maybe both. This one is one of the most very deep bright white marbles that I have, it was very hard to get a focus on—my eyes are recovering from some problems but it is as white as any screen actor/actress would want their teeth to be---or more. Ric gave me a tip on the deep white referring to Ravenswood a bit ago—I think that this one qualifies. (I need some more eye-drops) Tell me what you all think, Thanks and Marble—On!!

Pelt-tastic--most of them anyway. Nice bunch!! Marble--On!!

I love Muddy's and at $5 would have scooped it up in a heartbeat. Each to thier own, I would pay $5 for a 5/8"---just love em. Covid keeps me away from deals like this-oh well. I have to do what I have to do. It is a "muddy" no doubt. Marble--On!!!

I congratulate the buyer, and the fairly new seller. There no doubt was some great information given to the seller to avoid a variety of charges/taxes. I communicate with many sellers, sometimes it works and sometimes it does not. It is always worth a shot. I always give them my best as if it were face to face. I think that EBay and the feds lost out on some cash because of this great post. Trust was brokered and a great sale was made as well. Both parties are happy and I hope that I do not see a plethora of these for sale in the future. The box/marbles should be kept together; I think/hope that it will. I hope to see some more images from the buyer someday. It is a great/rare thing. They come and they go. I think that this one went to the right place. A buyer with much to learn from got this one. Then again, it may be posted again later---- Marble—On!!!

The seller attempted a repost on this item and failed. Here is a link. A few new images were included. Marble--On!! https://www.ebay.com/itm/224854228610?hash=item345a5b3e82%3Ag%3A8kEAAOSwVYRiF30D&LH_BIN=1&nma=true&si=fDQ0PARA0WXRJ8eSqvpvjGc4jEY%3D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

Patches can be hard. The one on the left is foriegn. Maybe a Vitro on the far right. Marble--On!!

Believe me, I looked very hard. I though I saw a bit of opalesence--not. I did see a ghostly image of a guy with a shovel. Right now everything is kinda fuzzy. Carrots for supper, my eyes are shot.

I call this one an Orange Brick, I looked at it three times this week, on the fourth time I decided to post it here, my Sundays best. Marble—On!!

Hello Tommy, The cut-off marks are always a good start for an ID if there are no pontils but sometimes they are hard to find, the cutoffs. There were a few companies that made Hand-gathered machine made slag’s. MFC and Akro were two of them, I believe that CAC did as well, they are a tad easier to distinguish from the others. I would have no problem pointing at MFC on yours. As always more input is appreciated. Marble—On!!

A really nice marble Marbleized!! Marble--On!!

"Carnelian" Mojo not Cornelian. A nice one, thats a killer brick as well! There is also an "Oxblood Carnelian" that Akro porduced, that type will rarely have any glow. Marble--On!!

Nice tail on that one Gladys, it looks like it wraps all the way around. Marble--On!!
-
You never disappoint Gladys, great marbles once again! Marble—On!!!

Steph, I worked this one over on my image software pretty well, I can only do so much. A look of the other side would be a great thing. As you can see, it is more transparent than semi-opaque. The background shows through quite well. I cannot call this one but it never hurts to help. Marble--On!!

This post does include “swirls” and I am surprised that more of these have not been posted. This is a Jabo “contract” marble. This one came to me with many names, runs etc, etc attached. Too complicated for me—I just like it. Is there really a “bad” side? These top notch Jabo contract marbles will be out of reach before too long. Get them while you can! Marble—On!!!

I am thinking Vitro on this one Gladys. More opinions are needed of course. Marble--On!!

Submarines are always a topic for debate in the Peltier world. I will defer to the Pelt-Heads here. It is a nice Peltier marble, no doubt. Marble--On!!
