Wow--nice score! Marble--On!! -
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 slagđ. Nice marble! Marble--On!!

Absolutelyâwhat 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 thingâI try to add as much as I can to the collections that they desire. What comes around may come around---this is the way. MarbleâOn!!

Get that Kro going my friend---Right in the middle of your foreheadâlol. MarbleâOn!!

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!!
-
Well--I did bid--lol. Ouch--no tattos for me my friend--.
-
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!!

Is Peltier "Miller" even a recognized format anymore? Wellâit is to me. I have had some nice ones pass through my handsânever this small. I will agree with âMillerâ and it does appear to have some AV to me. Regardlessâit is a nice marble and more opinions are needed. Send it to me for a final evalâlol. Love itâGreat find!! MarbleâOn!!

Absolutely--The Pack will be backâsooner than later. The youngest team in the NFL is getting it together. Marbles and PackersâOn!!

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!!!
-
@Nantucketdink May have an opinion on this one--just sayin-- Marble--On!!
-
I agree-Nice one though!! Marble--On!!

This is not a simple Rainbo imho. The glass is so clear that it is hard to believe that it is a PeltâVery few bubbles hardly any defectsâalmost Pelt banana type clear glassâI hope to see the winner post it here. MarbleâOn!! (If this one one those newer MK's I will be crushed)
-
Nice Pelt! Marble--On!!
-
Nice corkscrew!! Size alway matters--- Marble--On!!

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!!

I was raised in a Dutch settlement here in Wisconsin. Many of the really older folks still speak it. The saying here was always âIf you are not Dutchâyou are not muchâ. Times have changedâwhat can I sayâI am mostly a mutt--lol. (When I asked about my heritage my Pa would tell me that I was part cowboyâHee--Haw!!!) MarbleâOn!!!----For sure!!

Hello there to you DutchMarbles. Nice Veli's! Welcome to the Marbleconnection. Marble--On!!

I echo Ric here and will add a bit. âTurkey Headsâ 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 swirlâThe âTurkey Headâ 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 happenâone of them of course can be a âturkey headâ configuration in the final product. The âroad and tunnelâ is also a way to ID CAC marbles and imhoâit is a better way to the final ID. MarbleâOn!!

Ohhh--it does look like a pinch pontil--nice images! More opinons are needed. Marble--On!!
