It is not an Akro but I appreciate that you picked this one out and showed it to us here. I love the inclusions of dirt. This is more than likely a dug WVS (West Virginia Swirl)of some sort. It is not worth much in dollars but a pretty cool find imho. Thanks for sharing it! Marble--On!!

Wrong imho. This is just a nice Akro Cork that includes itself with many that are rare and hard to find. This is a first for me and I am impressed. There is no need to get fired up about names here---I think that it was just a reaction to the find. I would be fired up too if I found it. A fired-up reaction to a rarely found marble is always a great thing to share with us all. MarbleâOn! My Marble Collecting Friends!

Right back at you Ricđ--I did not name them--I just disagreed-with the OG ID==no Sparkler here either imho. They are cool to find , hold, and try to figure out. I had a few of these show up from some of the earlier digs in purchases that I made. This is from some of the old stuff from many years, way back, in the grey matter ( which is starting to turn brown). Just a "dug Akro" works for me. Marble--On!!

No doubt about it---really cool! Pink In an Akro==pretty rare! At first I tought Jabo or DAS--but the wear one this one--puts it back into what @Alan is telling us here. I agree--nice find! Marble--On!!
-
It sure does Alan! I will leak towards a WVS though--lets call in some experts in wvs. Marble--On!!

X2 with @Ric. Nice Akro! Marble--On!!

These big Akros came out of a dig and are generally called "Sparklers". I never quite agreed with this but I am quite sure that it is an Akro. There is no Oxblood involved here imho. Marble--On!!

Vacor Atmospheres questions to the owner.
akroorka replied to stephenb's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Along with the " Spheresâ and âPyramidsâ. Were the two bigger marbles produced by Vacor and were they sold to âgift shopsâ in the USA? MarbleâOn!! -
There are two blac/w swirls?slags? that get my attention here. I would pay $35 just to check them out--this is just me. Marble--On!!

This one is almost tops on my weird marble list. The blue and white remind me of a Vacor Atmosphere. I wonder what it may be--the size is right on but I have never seen one like this before. It could be a crossover between runs. The size narrows it down to a few makers. I am just flabergasted with this one. Lets ask @Melissa for an opinion here. She is into Atmos for sure. Very cool! Marble--On!!

Akro or Vitro imho with a lean toward Vitro--a heavy lean. I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!

This one is called a slag. White and one base color makes it a slag. Notice the bubbles and the striation in the base green color. More often than not the striations would be more noticeable in the white color. I am on board with this one being a Peltier slag. Keep it close to your heartâI just love this stuff. MarbleâOn!!

Wow--what a cool find. This is no Jabo imho. The size cuts it down to a few makers. I prefer to call it an Alley Agate myself. Great images once again--lets call in @cheese for an opinion. Marble--On!!
-
Imho--a Vitro--a Tri lite. @Ric and @Melissa are top notch Vitro collectors. Let me ask for some help here. Marble--On!!
-
Hmm, I am thinking Jabo classic here. Lets call in @Nantucketdink and @cheese for an opinion. Marble--On!!

I am riding the MFC train here my marble collecting friend. The depth of the amber pushes me in this direction. Marble--On!!

Man o man--I wish that I had a memory like yours. Nice marbles Fire. MarbleâOn!!

The last image shows that this one has a purple based glass-True black is a hard find in any glass. I agree that this one wants to be a corkscrewđ. There is no way to check this one but the white appears to be opalescent. Cool find! Marble--On!!
-
Those lumps look oxy enough for me---unintentional Oxblood if that is what it may be. These green swirls show up with a bunch of âwhat ifsâ more than any other colored marbles. Regardless of the IDânice images and a pretty nice find imho. Marbleâon!!
-
Yup x2. Nice Rainbo! Marble--On!!
-
Ummmm--I am thinking a Pelt here Ric. Lets ask @Fire1981 for an opinion. @Chad G. may also have some input on this one. Marble--On!!

I agree Al--is the white blue--or white Fire? Marble--On!!
