LOL Ric--I have not been swallowed yet. Machine Made’s rule!!---or whatever you like as far as that goes’. If you want a few—give me a PM call. Marble—On!!

Thanks, and welcome to "TheMarbleConnection". Just a tip here--more light and closer shots---I can see that you are passionate about collecting these cute little orbs. We all want to be nice here and give you our best welcome but your Image work needs some more work so we can enjoy them even more. Just ask and you will be rewarded—for sure. We have all struggled with images in the past and many of us here have eye problems. Most of us have been rewarded just by asking for help. There may just be a few left here that had to take images with film and scan them to get them on the board. Yes, I did use a Polaroid Camera back in the day. (are they really coming back?). Marble—On!!

Well, no one has said CAC yet--I will. Size always matters--nice, well cropped images matter too. Repost this one with your very best images and be rewarded. Show all four sides of this cute little orb. (four sides of an orb--you get what I mean--cutlines on both sides and opposite to them on both sides.) The thing is--These CAC "Guinea" marbles have been faked by so many independant marble makers that some folks will get gun-shy as far as giving any positive ID. I am quite certain--80% is the best that I can do without any further images. This one is worth it's own post in the ID section if you are up for it. Nice marble--Marble--On!! -
this one has me stumped big time ! thanks in advance~~!!

I think that Ric has this one nailed--no Jabo here imho. @Nantucketdink What do you think?. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more on this one. Marble--On!! -
Another one?--Pretty cool. Marble--On!! Transparent----Asian imho--coke bottle glass, just not the same imho. Marble--On!!

100% x2. Marble--On!!

I am thinking Ravenswood here--maybe @cheese will chime in. Marble--On!!

Pelt for sure-imho! Could be a weird Pelt "Bannana". I can agree with this--but a clear base? Me either--great marble!! @Fire1981 has seen a bunch of weird Pelts--lets give him a call. Marble--On!!

What can I say---great stuff!! Marble--On!! -
Thanks for the images. It is what I thought it was. These Akro Ox patches are usually quite common regarding the colors involved. This one is special for sure. Weird and very cool---great find—Nice images! Marble—On!!

I think that this one has a “finish" that is original as it was found. This is my story; Big Brother just loved this marble--His mom/dad loved the way that he shot marbles--maybe too much----! He –the big bro, got too much attention for his marble shooting skills and he just loved this marble. Little sister/brother decided one day that she/he had enough and wanted more attention. Down the Shute--- in a very cold and icy day----in the "outhouse “it “went--never being seen again until Fire found it online. Great marble!! I just love this stuff. Marble—On!!

I get it for sure--the red and white one is a Pelt--maybe a weak "Red Zebra". The one that flips my boat is the Akro "Oxblood Patch" with green involved. I am sure that everyone that looks at this group could pick a favorite and no one could agree for sure on the best. I am just saying "rarest" here. I know that anyone looking is drooling at one or another. Imho the Green Raven is the rarest..... and very close to being the coolest. Marble--On!! -
I agree with this ID---If you have ever looked at "dug MK's in groups--you will find this type once in awhile. Marble--On!!
-
Not a Ghost--more than likely a very nice Jabo--Classic--based on the damage--the little white hit marks. I appreciate all opionions and hope to see some more. Nice marble non the less! Marble--On!!

X2 Nice find!! Marble--On!!

"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!! -
Vitro imho---Size always matters. Just based on my experience with this type😁. @Ric knows these better than I do. Marble--On!!
-
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!!
-
I agree Fire, this makes this one an old WVS--pretty cool find in this condition. Marble--On!!

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!! -
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!!!!!

Good stuff Alan--Thankyou! Happy NewYear👀. I have been treating Glacouma since my early fourties🕶️--this info counts for sure. Marble--On!!

@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!!
