No copy and paste hereš. I think that you have a Peltier slag there. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

Yes, I just copied and pastedš. This is a machine made slag--there is no hand-gathering is obvious to me. I would sort it as an Akro. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

I agree with Chad. There are stress cracks on this one that occured during the annealing process (the cooling down period after the marble was off the rollers). I have seen plenty of Heatons with this feature. Swirl not slag for sure! Marble--On!!

I would not count it out, Akro made some oxblood that was more transparent than opaque CharlieT--a good observation for sure! Nice images mccracken, The fact that @Alan has a few like this makes me wonder. I am inspecting the damage on the marble, this usually will determine old vs newer. Newer glass in my experience is softer and more prone to little white hit marks. Jabo is a good example of these little whit hit marks. @Nantucketdink has a very good handle on Jabo marbles, he could clear this up for sure. There appear to be striated scratches not common to game play but more often found in a marble from a dig-site. @Steph may be right on the older WVS idea and @cheese and @Ric both have been on the digs and may offer an opinion. I see why mccracken though that it may be a Peltālots of bubbles. Experimetal marbles were not always cooked like production types and this may explain the ābubbliciousā nature of this one. I am leaning towards a vintage dug marble, it may be from any number of dig sites imho. If @Fire1981 did not recognize it, then I doubt that it is a Pelt. We cannot ID them allābut we sure as heck can try. Thanks all!! MarbleāOn!!

Welcome into the fold Diana. Good to see that you admit the truth. Marbles are a tuff egg to crack. We are all looking forward to some images as Chad suggests. Marble--On!!
-
Thanks cheese, it is a nice one for sure. Marble--On!!

Tricky for sure and it could be vintage or--- The vaseline colored glass and the one cutline that I can see reminds me of some Akro that I have seen. That being said--it may be easier to determine if both cutlines are shown. Natural sunlight please. Marble--On!!

You are probably talking about some sort of pollution but I agree with Tommy---- Post some images. Marble--On!!

Good to see you back off Melissa. You cannot win them all! It is a great marble! One of the very best! That "woody" looking one that the seller has caught my eye--just not my bid fingerš. Marble--On!!
-
The rwb one--- Vacor āPatriotā, āRehileteā or āUSAā, Those āUSAā Vacors are my pick for your marble. @Mojo , @Joe2 and @Melissa have a great handle on Vacors and I hope that they show up to give you a definite answer. The yellow on white---is a wvs imhoāI will call it a Champion until corrected by @cheese or @Chad G.āperhaps @Ric will chime in ( I wish that he would--) MarbleāOn!!
