  1. I would consider this one a varient of a "Twister". @Mojo may have a few ideas here. Marble--On!!
  2. Lets ask @cheese for an opinion here. Marble--On!!
  3. X3--I agree with all. Marble--On!!
  4. Done deal, the book is mint. Thanks Steph! Marble--On!!
  5. Steve Ice, I suggest an introduction including some marbles to show who and what you are. I blocked you for a while until I recieved info that you are a good guy and welcome to posting here. This is a marble board after all--not a community that asks who/where are you on the board. We are not facebook. I will continue to block anyone looking for personal informaton until I can verify the sender to the reciever. Steph said you are OK and that is all that I needed to allow this post. In the future, keep it to marbles please. You can contact Steph via Personal Message @Steph. Enough said. Welcome back and of course--- Marble--On!!
  6. I am referring to the date stamped and the price shown. If they are both right--I better get back out there and find a few. Marble--On!!
  7. More Commonly known as "Fiesta". Check this link out if you are protected well enough--it is not secure. https://www.billes-en-tete.com/liste_billes.php I have no problems here but I am fit like the "Master Chief" as far as internet armour goes.
  8. It is a great marble but I suspect something is wrong here with the packaging. @Al Oregon, @Mojo and @Melissa may have a few comments to add here. Marble--On!!
  9. I have seen a few of these posted and I do not rember any confirmed ID's Fire. Great marble--no ID from me. Marble--On!!
  10. Alley Agate imho Fire. Marble--On!!
  11. Get some white light or even better-----sunlight on these marbles and future images. Use the Macro setting on you camera if possible, it will keep the images sharper at close range. A yellow background seems to work the best for me--per some advisement from a respected member here. If you are having any dificulties getting your images right--just ask and be rewarded. The first one appears to be an Akro Slag of the "Amber" variety. The second looks like it could be a Master Made Marble. I know that you try hard to get these images posted. Practice makes perfect--you will get it---- I am sure. Keep on trying and keep marbleing on!!
  12. It just might be a screwed up corkscrew--lol. Nice marble! Marble--On!!
  13. I bet that you did๐Ÿ˜. I do lego in a south facing window just to soak up some sun during the winter. I am working on Mona Lisa now--just fun stuff that keeps the brain from fogging up too much. Marble--On!!
  14. Yep plastic. They have been around for some time. Alot of them came in games but a bunch also came with figures/images inside of them. I just cannot recall the name right now.. Maybe @Al Oregon can help me out here (he seems a bit sharper than I am๐Ÿ”ช). Marble--On!!
  15. Did you have to squeeze the calipers CharlieT?๐Ÿ˜. I do all of the time--same results. Marble--On!!
  16. Well, if you showed these to my wife.. the "bennies" would be the choice. This is what is so cool about collecting marbles. You seperated them pretty well being new to the hobby. I think that you should put them in a cool jar and pay respect to grandpa. Marble--On!!
  17. WVS X2--no maker from me. Nice stands! Marble--On!!
  18. It may be a Vacor "Samurai". Nice marble! I appreciate all opinions and hope to see some more. Marble--On!!
  19. This one is just killer. These smaller ones do show up with different colors--they just act different imho. Why do I collect Akro Agate? You just never know what you may find. Colorwise, size wise, cool factor wise, just too many Corkscrews and not enuff time๐Ÿ˜. I will keep on looking for sure. 9/16" Akro are a rare find but it seems that in the later years, the Ox patches turned up quite frequently in this size. I have been searching 9/16" Akro for years now--just a hard find. I will keep on marbling--you folks should too. Marble--On!!
  20. Super Sunday for sure. Here is a double ingot Flintie @ 7/8". It is almost perfect and a cool find for me. Marble--On!!
  21. I had a bit of trouble paying @bumblebee . I could not enter any exact amounts. I just did two $100 payments--it is worth it for sure. Marble--On!!
  22. Thanks Steph, I will pay pronto. Marble--On!!
