  1. X2 Nice find!! Marble--On!!
  2. "Crown Jewel" is a matter of opinion for sure. I appreciate your opinion and it is a beauty--they all are top notch marbles--great find! Let’s call in @cheese with his new avatar for an opinion here along with @Ric—not for the crown jewel so much as the hardest to find. My hardest to find would be the Green Raven if that is what it truely is--the second hardest to find would be the one marked with a star on the lower left--a Killer CAC. Marble—On!!
  3. Vitro imho---Size always matters. Just based on my experience with this type😁. @Ric knows these better than I do. Marble--On!!
  4. I think that I know what Al is thinking here---Size aways maters---. It may be an Akro--or?? This is a nice one! Marble--On!!
  5. I agree Fire, this makes this one an old WVS--pretty cool find in this condition. Marble--On!!
  6. Only one imho-- The right hand one is a Pelt--middle row, yellow and green with some transparent color going on--- a very nice one of this type imho. The only Pelt here imho.Good eye!! The Veliglass is the big one at the top middle--pretty cool find! I will just bet that this one glows like a firefly. I want to see some more of the bottom row--the"middle one". "Green Ravens" are not an easy find--lets see some more of this one Yes I get it--there are some CAC shown here but these "Green Ravens" are a very good find imho--top notch!! Marble--On!!
  7. Flabergasted is a word--I think anyhow. I wonder how many were in my boat here. I would never have Id'd these as Vacor----name please???? Ask and you will recieve--sometimes😇. Great marbles!!!!!
  8. Good stuff Alan--Thankyou! Happy NewYear👀. I have been treating Glacouma since my early fourties🕶️--this info counts for sure. Marble--On!!
  9. @Melissa great image and message as well. What are they? I am just guessing here--- MK?? Nice group--- great looking marbles as well. Happy New Year to you and yours. Marble--On!!
  10. "1984 Noble Effort"--it was hard to pick out a favorite here--the butterfly is mine--noble for sure! Who made it? Thanks for sharing this one Alan. Marble--On and Happy New Year!
  11. It could be a polished Imperial--but who does that???. I would rather blow snow out of the driveway---or uggg mow the lawn. Marble--On!!

    3 WVS

    I get what davesnothere says here especially with number four. The top three are WVS probably Alley agate--#4 may be a screwed up Akro but the way that the yellow mellows out to an almost white reminds me of a Champion made marble. #4 does not belong with the top three—just not the same imho. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble—On!!
  13. Nice images! Melissa is right on X2. Master Glass imho. Marble--On!!
  14. This is a normal "what is it to me". We here see many like it. It could be an Alley Agate---or an "Alox". Is it cool--yes it is--is it easy to ID--well not very easy. It is a wvs no doubt. Marble--On!!
  15. I like this type--I think that it is a dug WVS--probably an Alley Agate. I thought Vacor at first but they seem to have better grading than this one has. The damage on this one along with the out of roundness suggest what I think is right. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  16. Yep--at first I thought "Imperial marble". This one is finished too well. Master Made Marbles--even Master Glass Marbles always show up with a nice hard-- well finished surface. No pits or cutline’s are regular with them--they do show up from time to time but Imperials will almost always show some form of unfinished business with the finish. Nice find! Marble—On!!
  17. Thanks Al--great stuff as always. Happy New Year to you! I think that you may just love this stuff as much as I do. Many Happy Returns! Marble--On!!
  18. "Snakeskin"--very cool! I deleted your double post--no worry. I have done it plenty with Chad backing me up. Does this one look like Oxblood to you? It is a very cool marble non-the-less. Thanks for sharing it! Marble--On!!
  19. I know UV but 395 is not in my venacular--please explain this. These marbles remind me of something that I never really got cleared up as far as I can remember. I think Vitro, many thought Akro. This type came in some "Victory" marked "jobber boxes" boxes marketed during the "Bicentennial". The colors are very close to what I found in a Vitro "Fisher Jewel Tray" involving helmets. I will show some images below. I think that the OP are Vitro marbles Marble--On!!
  20. 2025 is right around the corner--I consider this my very best find. Marble--On!!
  21. This may be one of the top five that I have seen--maybe top two!! Very nice find--- Marble--On!!
  22. Nuff said, my marble collecting friend. I fill boxes and this template is my go to when sorting, fast efficient and well ---very easy. Cutting hairs with the size--never have been a big fan of this. One after another--millions made--all the same run--size did matter but not that much. Marble--On!!
  23. Great Post Ric---and by the way--welcome back once again. Marble--On!!
