  1. Speakin of the OP--well-- I am not convinced that it is not an Orange based swirl, which are pretty common and made by a whole bunch of folks. Some are bound to be wild and crazy. Then again, I am not convinced that it is not a slag😁. Nice marble! Marble--On!!
  2. Cool Beans for sure--Bead Blasted?? Marble--On!!
  3. These two caught my eye. More images will be needed for an ID. Marble--On!!
  4. I'm not sure either--I will lean towards Master on the little one--that bright blue color--hmmm? The bigger one does look like a Master to me--Nice one. Marble--On!!
  5. Absolutely—what Ric says. I have happily traded or sold marbles that were not meant to be in my collection. Sometimes I just have too much and decide to give up what others may enjoy. This is the way in my world at least. One peewee in a collection of one is not really a collection. Yes, I have some peewees but they were just found during sorting in a matter of speaking. I would gladly give them up to a Pee wee collector for a fair trade. There are all sorts of collectors addicted to the marble thing—I try to add as much as I can to the collections that they desire. What comes around may come around---this is the way. Marble—On!!
  6. Get that Kro going my friend---Right in the middle of your forehead—lol. Marble—On!!
  7. This is a new term/name to me at least. The marbles posted appear to be some wild "Rainbo's". The middle one is cool for sure--but no names from me at least. Marble--On!!
  8. Well--I did bid--lol. Ouch--no tattos for me my friend--.
  9. I am with Ric here --it is a nice looking patch type marble but nothing worth getting too excited about. If there were five like this together-- I would stay below $35 total--just me--but I do backfill boxes. Marble--On!!
  10. Is Peltier "Miller" even a recognized format anymore? Well—it is to me. I have had some nice ones pass through my hands—never this small. I will agree with “Miller” and it does appear to have some AV to me. Regardless—it is a nice marble and more opinions are needed. Send it to me for a final eval—lol. Love it—Great find!! Marble—On!!
  11. Absolutely--The Pack will be back—sooner than later. The youngest team in the NFL is getting it together. Marbles and Packers—On!!
  12. My first reaction was "Far Out"--I know, a little dated--but that is what I thought. Janis Joplin would have loved it---I sure do. Marble On!!!
  13. Great idea bumblebee--next year give some of us older collectors a chance to contribute to this great idea--I surely would as most here would as well. Marble—On For sure!!
  14. @Nantucketdink May have an opinion on this one--just sayin-- Marble--On!!
  15. I agree-Nice one though!! Marble--On!!
  16. This is not a simple Rainbo imho. The glass is so clear that it is hard to believe that it is a Pelt—Very few bubbles hardly any defects—almost Pelt banana type clear glass—I hope to see the winner post it here. Marble—On!! (If this one one those newer MK's I will be crushed)
  17. Nice corkscrew!! Size alway matters--- Marble--On!!
  18. I have a few of these--they just knocked my socks off a few years back. I do not expect to find any better--but I still look-- Marble--On!!
  19. I was raised in a Dutch settlement here in Wisconsin. Many of the really older folks still speak it. The saying here was always “If you are not Dutch—you are not much”. Times have changed—what can I say—I am mostly a mutt--lol. (When I asked about my heritage my Pa would tell me that I was part cowboy—Hee--Haw!!!) Marble—On!!!----For sure!!
  20. Hello there to you DutchMarbles. Nice Veli's! Welcome to the Marbleconnection. Marble--On!!
  21. I echo Ric here and will add a bit. “Turkey Heads” are a part of many swirls and many companies that produced marbles will show them. They cannot be narrowed down to CAC although they did produce a bunch of them. In the world of marble making machinery, this type of swirl—The “Turkey Head” is bound to happen in any type of marble regardless of manufacture. As the glass drips out of the furnace and is cut off before it hits the rollers many things can happen—one of them of course can be a “turkey head” configuration in the final product. The “road and tunnel” is also a way to ID CAC marbles and imho—it is a better way to the final ID. Marble—On!!
  22. Ohhh--it does look like a pinch pontil--nice images! More opinons are needed. Marble--On!!
  23. Me too Ric--very nice!! Marble--On!!
