Man, I call that a great days or hours work! I had a good day yesterday in the wild. I am still in the dark on ID so I am going to post 3 out of this group in the ID section as I guess help isn't what this topic is about.

Not sure how often anyone is supposed to enter scores, but found these in the wild yesterday. All near mint could be mint if I knew how to grade. Very clean. Getting lucky at finding things I guess. If they are any good that is. $8.50 so the price was right. The last pic weighs 7 1/4 pounds it was $20.00. Have some equipment coming to help with the pictures. Going to look at a really big bunch tomorrow.

Thanks William, I tried replying sooner but finally found out I wasn't signed in. Newbie everywhere.

Thanks akrooka, beginning to understand the basic Pelts, but little else so far.

Just made this score today. At least I think it was a score as I still don't know ID's very well. Thought it was okay for 18.00. Photo'd all that I thought were okay and the rest were pretty dinged up. About 50% were mint or near mint.

Thank you Chad, I appreciate the advice on how to post and the ID. I will also try to figure out how to take better pics.

Brand new here and same to marbles. Marble beauty recently caught my eye while garage saleing and decided to stick my foot in for fun. Have accumulated approximately 300 marbles but really have no idea what I am doing other than buying what I like and getting a copy of Block's Marbles of 2011. I've read a lot of the chat in here and find it enthralling but confusing. I know it takes time as does any collecting as I have other collections. Any identifications on some of the ones I have collected and posted here so far would be much appreciated. I am not sure I have not been buying a pig in a poke, so any valuation literature source would also be helpful. Thank you in advance for any help you can give.
