Nice images here and I like the holder as well—an old electrical insulator from an older house? Imho—this is an Akro Agate patch type that was found as a discard during the “Digs” of the old Akro site---I far as I know no –one ever had permission to dig these sites. Akro Agate had one thing going for them though-—quality control. I apprecaite all opinions and hope to see some more here. The inclusion of the "oven brick" etc tells me this. Nice find! Marble—On!!

👍.

I agree x2. The Vitro is more than likely an "Aqua Marine" that saw some good play and fire damage as well. I may be dreaming here but--the older "Furnace repair" folks often found marbles in the burner area of the furnace. Kids would roll these little orbs down the "cold air return" until they heard a "clunk". I was one of those kids. Marble--On!!

This is a very cool one--thanks for sharing it. Marble--On!!

X3--Nice ones though. The first one is a varient of a Vitro "Conqueror" and the second one is a Vitro "Tiger Eye". These Vitro "Tiger Eyes" came in a variety of colors and mixes along with a few different styles from years past. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

Yes, I tried A.I. on a few marbles. I am not worried--it asked me to teach it . I declined that request but I am sure that many folks will be lured in--here we go!! Marble ID fights against computers--what a drag! My computer is a tool for me and I do not teach my Table Saw anything--it teaches me---keep you fingers away from the blade-lol. Just rambling--on here--sorry--- Marble--On!!

Akro vs Vitro--hmmm? Very close call for sure. I am just going by the colors here--Vitro--a nice older model--no names from me. I respect all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

X3--- Vitro "Conqueror" and Peltier "Rainbo". There is no 'W' in the Peltier type--Marble King made Rainbows. Marble--On!!

I agree with all of the above ID's. Marble--On!!

I agree with Vitro--nice one! The green and white I would call a WVS or "West Virginia Swirl" made by one of the many companies that operated in WV--probably an Alley Agate. This is just my humble opinion and I hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

I would call this one a MK or Marble King marble. I am not good with names but this one may have one? Marble--On!

Oh--I looked! You have a great example of a "Popeye Patch" with a big ole bubble included--pretty cool. These Popeye patches all/most came from a dig on the Akro Agate site. Most are blue and yellow like yours--yours is just very cool--not normal imho. Nice marble! Marble--On!!

Ummm, These both look like Vitro--the left one is a Vitro imho and the right one shows a classic cutline of an Akro Patch type. Both are nice finds. Marble--On!!

Marble King, my marble collecting friend. A nice one for sure. @Melissa may have some thoughts here. Marble--On!!

Vitro "All Red" for sure. The owner of Vitro (at the time at least) wanted all Vitro marbles to include red. "All Red" is actually a Vitro Company name and the more that you continue to collect, the more that you will find. These are quite common but still cool to look at. Marble--On!!

MK sounds right. @Melissa may have a handle on this one. Marble--On!!

I agree with Tommy here. Masters also showed up with "Lashes". Nice marble--Nice find!! Marble--On!!

This one is a corkscrew imho--just fancy. Nice marble!! Marble--On!!

It may just be me with my large monitor--but I see some red in this marble. Could it be Oxblood? Either way, Akro or MFC imho. Marble--On!!

Nice "Helmet". Marble--On!!

Welllll--I would call it a weird Pelt Rainbo. They do show up quite weird--almost as much as a cork from Akro. Just my humble opinion--- Marble--On!!

Peltier x2 Marble--On!!

Wow! Nice big Vitro imho. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

I agree with "Chalkie". These were found in the "digs"--not found too often in a variety of digs that we consider here. The "digs/chalky" come from a variety of instances that happened under the earth for awhile come into play. It is just a simple explanation of under the earth for awhile (years) interacting with being buried with a few chemical reactions taking place while being below the ground. @cheese or @Alan may have a better explanationfor you all. Marble—On!!
