Baby, I was born this way. Creased marble
akroorka replied to The Nickel Guy's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Good call Alan. The White/Green parts remind me of a "Jabo Classic". I have seen a few "bigger" ones in this color combo. Marble--On--and Merry Holidays for sure. -
Orange on white swirls but I think are a little different?
akroorka replied to The Nickel Guy's topic in Marble I.D.'s
There were pleny of Akros made that look like this one. If we have another member taking images while driving---not for me for sure. The images could be sharpened up a bit--I suspect that these were taken while the "Hemi" was rattlling--or not. Maybe a "Coyote"? Marble--On!! -
Good one--I am sure that he would--lol. Marble--On!!

A pretty colorful solid swirl . . . well, at least I think so

This is what counts! Marble--On!! -
Well that was before my time here--this might help in your search. I discovered Brian on my own after I purchased some "guineas' a few years back that I knew were false (not CAC). I did the research (Fun --great fun) and found out what I needed to know. Maybe @akronmarbles can help you with your search. The marbles are posted below. Marble--On!!

These are my thoughts-- Post it in the ID section with some more images and a size. This one is worth the effort for sure.(do it at home🙈 please). Marble---On!!!

I have a few of his including oxbloods. If you find it give me a hollar, I will be at the very least helpful with an ID. Brian made his own recipe for oxblood--just killer marbles!! Funny how I just found mine in a minute. Marble--On!!

I agree with Vacor. If this one has an Iridescent –or metallic finish—it is a “Spumoni”imho. With no iridescence—maybe a “Parrot”. Yours is pretty cool! Marble—On!! -
The last one--the oxblood, a first for me. That green that is involved--very cool. Marble--On!!

I agree Al, I will lean towards a Pelt Rainbo though. Marble--On!!

Once you find the facets--you will be hooked. These were also made in California---LA--in the good ole USA. I love to backlight this type---just me maybe----not! Research these a bit more and find out how they were made. You will be hooked for sure. These marbles took a beating and kept on cooking. Here is one with backlight Marble--On!!

Love it!! Marble--On!!

akroorka replied to Jeff54's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Thanks Jeff54, We do not generally accept any ads or links here--it should be deleted by me. You can edit your post and delete the link--this would be a good thing for sure. Thanks for showing up again and lets let this one slide for now. Keep it to marbles in the future though. Welcome back!! Marble--On!!! -
Great group Melissa! If I had a "Wedding Cake" it would be yours--just sayin. Marble--On!!

Its all ok here. When you get similar marbles of this type it is always a good idea to backlight--hit them with some UV light and then stand back and look again. IMHO--- I think that these may be from three different makers. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more--- Marble--On!!

Nice find! I am happy to see that you have had these ID'd before you purchased them. I am waiting to see the rest---. Marble--On!!
