  1. Do you see the orange reflections in the images? Opalescent glass is involved here, the white--pretty cool imho. This one is a Vitro "Conqueror". A common marble that may include some special finds such as yours. Thanks for sharing it along with the nice images that you have worked very hard on. Marble--On!!
  2. These Akro orange on orange corks can be a hard ID for sure. Akro X2 imho. Nice find. Great images as well. Marble--On!!
  3. I agree with not Akro. MK or possibly a Vitro imho. @Melissa may have some input here. Nice marble!! Marble--On!!
  4. MK Rainbow X3. Nice find! Marble--On!!
  5. The lighter colored clay part reminds me of an Akro crow, that along with the darker part including the striations in image #1 make me think “Dug Akro”. The orange is right in there as well. This is my final answer. Marble--On!!
  6. Nice marble--very clean. Did PPP.s come in this color? Marble--On!!
  7. It is wacky--might just be a Pelt--Cool find! Marble--On!!
  8. Nice grouping Wolf--I love it. Marble--On!!
  9. Well--not that many for sure. They seem to be almost as common as a Popeye for sale of this type though--maybe a few hundred thousand--or less--they were all put up for sale to collectors and all collectors were in the market for such. Yeh, I know, a pickup truck full of old wooden boxes full--that is still a bunch of marbles-but let’s get real. These are some of the most collectable "dumped Marbles" ever. (with the exception of most of the river dumped CAC) I always wanted one or two of these Akro type and I have a few--e-nuff said. Nothing to be ashamed of owning--just part of the history of Akro Agate. Marble--On!!
  10. Nice group--for sure! Marble--On!!
  11. There are pleny of Akro Cokscrews that meet up with this ones colors and design--this one is just a lonely stepchild that did not meet the mark. Keep it close to your heart and cherise it. Marble--On!!
  12. I feel comfy cally this one a Akro Agate Slag. Nice find! Marble--On!!
  13. I agree with all that has been posted for sure. Let me add this; it may have been one that rolled down the cold air exchange and landed on some coal which was heating the furnace for the home. I may have been in a house fire also—or just some kids like me back in the day throwing stuff on a fire. It has Fire damage—nothing from the Factory imho--cool find! Marble—On!!
  14. I think that Fire is very close to the size here which is always important. This is one very nice looking Pelt Rainbo imho. Crop up the images and put it in sunlight in the future for a better ID as your marbles come along. This one is a lock imho. Marble--On!!
  15. I am a Dink too--an AkroDink--nuf said here. Thanks for stepping in Nantucket-- Marble--On!!
  16. Jabo Classic X2-- Marble--On!!
  17. X2 with Ric. This one has a less than common green transparent base glass included. It looks like this one came from a beach either from the Great Lakes or the Ocean. I would be happy to find it on the beach during a walk. I just found a marble in my garden that baffles me--a railroad (industrial) marble---you all know--the greenish ones filled with folds---the tracks are about 200 yards away--lol. Maybe a crow picked it up and hid it just for me😁. I still picked it up and cleaned it like it was a gemstone. We all love this stuff. Marble--On!!
  18. Different for sure and worth a post Mister 408. What @Ric says is true and to the point. Marble--On!!
  19. Jabo X2--nice job with the images. This is a "Jabo Classic" or one made in the actual factory setting for sales around the world. These will be "Classic/Vintage" not to far in the future. Take good care of this type--very soft glass prone to hit marks. Marble--On!!
  20. It is a contemporary made marble. I cannot remember the name of the of the artist here in the USA but he/she did these quite well and they are/were expensive. I want to call them ---" Dragon eggs" but I am not too sure. I could never afford them--I still liked them though, still do. This one is a knock off from the OG. Maybe @Alan has a clue here to share with us. Marble--On!!
  21. You do not see many like this one--pretty cool regardless of the ID. X3 Marble--On!!
  22. I think that Ric is right on here. My second look lined up with his assessment. Marble—On!!
  23. Whoa! MK kicked to the curb here--X3. Nice one! Marble--On!!
  24. Nice finds for sure--That middle one made me drool on my shirt--mouth wide open--can't help it😁. Thanks for sharing them! Marble--On!!
