  1. Keep seeing posts about old bags of marbles.  Been looking but never seem to find any until now.  Found these up for purchase but have no idea how much should be paid as the marbles in two of them are not much.  Coca Cola bag is more interesting.  Somehow the bag seems to put a lot of punch in the price.  Anyone that can give me some guidelines would be appreciated.

  2. Hoping the one on the left is some kind of weird Pelt at .62.  Under light you can see clear threw it and it appears to have loads of AV.  Middle one is translucent swirl of some kind at .60.  On the right is transparent with lots of bubbles and what I think are cut lines, no clue.  Need help on these for sure.

  3. Clear, transparent and lots of bubbles.  1st photo shows a pontil or a hit, not sure which.  Small veins/strands on one side, fatter ones on the other.  CATs eye for sure, but did a certain company make these and is there any value over regular Cats Eyes.  Hard to get right lighting

  4. Thanks akroorka,  I have looked at all the sources I can find and still am undecided.  No light seems to shine through and these have gotten thrown in with a lot of other put asides for later marbles, so I can't say there were any other colors in the lot.  There seems to be quite a glow under a black light but there is no florescence under any kind of light.  Probably put them with Vitro for now.
