X3--not quite bifurcated it looks more like qaudfurcated🙃. Nice marble! Marble—On!!

I agree with Ric--X2. Marble--On!!

I was lust looking at the one you purchased. The little squiggle in it caught my eye, very interesting. Lets us have a better image of it when it arrives. The OP is an Alley "Pistachio" imho. The black in these is actually a very dark brown. Years ago they were thought to be CAC, the diggers saved the day again! Thanks diggers! Marble--On!!

This is a new one to me—the name and the design. The image shows what may be an iridescent finish. I would have to see it in hand to give any further comments. Marble—On!!

Football!! I just got done and I still think that it is pretty . My Ariens double stage and my little one stage Toro teamed up with me at the controls and we just ate it up. The less shoveling the better in my world. It does help to be retired—lol. I will never be a “snow bird”. I love all the seasons here in Wisconsin and I would rather blow snow than mow my lawn. I am guessing that we got from 12-14 inches but hard to tell with all of the drifting. Some in our city lost power--what a drag--not us though, I am just thankful for that. The snow is cleared, the birdfeeders are filled and now-- Now I am ready for some Football!!.

These are weird--Vitro/Jabo late or early. I suggest that you send an image to Dave Mccullough. Marble--On!!

I have seen a few 5/8” Pelt Rainbos with this color combo. The black was actually brown as I recall—I wonder? Marble—On!!

I will find one some day-- for$25 or so. Marble--On!!

Just the lighting Ric. No pinkish in hand, just creamy white. Marble--On!!

Can I jumpstart Akro Friday with this one? One inch and just killer! Marble—On!!

There is an almost identical box to this one with the Peltier name applied along with the Ottawa Illinois tag rather than New York. The one that you show is quite common, the Pelt one is less so and way more desirable. $25 dollars is all the money here and not worth weathering the storm imho. These were a part of a “Chinese Checkers” game box and were not sold as separates as far as I know— Marble—On!!

Happy Akro Friday! This one is just over an inch, probably dug or “experimental”. Off white (very cool to me at least) and a more regular Akro Agate green are included here. It is in very fine shape though and pretty minty for one out of the ground imho. These larger Corkscrews always get me going, there are not too many to find so I jump on them when I get a chance. Marble—On!!

The white mixed in with the green in image one makes me fall away from Akro for an ID. I do not think that I would sort it as a "Coral". I am with Cheese. They do not all have names but this one is very nice imho. Marble--On!!

Nice marble! Nice deep white! Could it be batch glass vs cullet? I have noticed in my backlighting experiences that even the transparent colors will show "Feathering". I cannot explain it but it is there for any that want to know and experiment. Not all have it, just a few imho. I just love a Pelt Red Slag! Marble—On!!

Now you are done for Chuck G😁! I am sure that another one exists somewere but no worry on the name catching on. This may be just one of those that were made in-between runs. The marble machines were running and even though a style change was ordered by the boss, the machines kept running. The glass changed color and the marbles kept rolling and some of these were missed by quality control. It is a cool Rainbo for sure—maybe more? Christmas Tree? Not even a weak one imho. This type of marble, the weird and unexplainable gets my juices flowing, I just love this stuff!! I hope to see some more opinions. Marble—On!!

Me too Ric, this is why this bunch came home. They do not glow but they sure are different--and, I have a good row of them😁. Here is another image of them. I have not seen this type before. The glass reminds me of some lamp parts that I have seen--I wonder? Marble--On!!

Can you blame me for purchasing the marbles in the first image—about $30, I do get lucky-but only because of the years of research that I have done. The next image shows what was sent as a bonus. Who does not like a bonus? This marble is crackeled but it is wet-mint on the surface. Is this a marble that someone decided to”Crackle” or just a very weird Pelt? I see two av colors here, blue and white. Is it a “Tiger”, a “Wiger” or a “Wasp”? I just love this stuff--- Marble—On!!

If you do not mind--I will steal this image and make a t-shirt with it? If you want one I will order two. I think that we are the same size--big! Marble--On!!

This is a very nice "Liberty" the "drizzle" makes it special for sure. This one is a tuff call-- I think that it is a CAC--slag. I would call it a four color--do not doubt that my eyes went right there. More images are needed here for sure--I just love it. Marble--On!!

Excellent Ric! Marble—On!!

Pelt--no doubt. Marble--On!!

Very nice find boris64--very nice. I would like to see some more of the one on the very right hand and the one second from the left. Nice for sure! Marble--On!!

Funny thing Ric, I just spent the last 45 minutes tring to figure out Brians link here--I started a new folder. Is that "sparkle in the gold? As far as @akronmarbles goes--make some more marbles Brian and post here when you do. I love -em and many here do. Great find Ric!! Marble--On!!

I am sorry to hear that you are giving your collection up Sherryfain. This might be the way for you and I respect that. If you are willing to give up about 30%, there are many sellers out there that will "Take a look". You can alway test the waters on e-bay with a group here or there. You have been a bright light here one "TheMarbleConnection" and I would hate to see the end of your passion for these great little orbs. Consider selling your furniture instead--lol, like I would--or your Husband or dog. I wish you well-- Marble--On!!

Welcome to the club boris64. That is a great group and what I was looking for is right. Look for facets --or flat spots on the agate. The Brick appears to be an Akro imho. The rest are just killer and I will leave them up for opinions for now. What a great find! Marble--On!!
