change it's bands? 1 5/8" in a light gray base glass; thanks

Well, I sure hope it sells ! 13/16" with the bands just under the surface. thanks

I tried to backlight it, sorry for the pic. The darker bands are the ones that glitter. thanks

I found an old, button type, Korner (made in Germany) accordion. It is a Korner and not a Honer. I can't find any information on it anywhere. Anyone know a guy or gal that may be able to shed some light? Just found out it may be known as a Squeeze Box (go Who !) thanks

Don't know and yes fake ground pontil. I did not have it done and have it for about 10 years. Looks to me it was done to deceive. thanks

A restored or reconditioned mib. Over 1 3/4" solid core: thanks

Right on mon. thanks

thanks

Well, I don't know what it is, but I do know what it isn't and it is not fractures. It is an old german handmade. However, thank you very much for the input. thanks

1" amber slag. It has bands/threads of white inside and bands/threads of something that glistens when looked at in the sun or bright light. At first I thought it may be lutz, but why would they put lutz in such a dark based marble? Then I looked some amber micas, where the mica inside was pretty much the same color. But I don't think I have seen bands/threads of mica in a marble before(?). Your thoughts please. thanks

That type of "damage" is not that uncommon for this size and type of marble. I believe your starting bid is fair but I am trying to avoid the greed-bay scam as much as I can. If it does not sell for you over there, please list it here in the buy and sell forum. thanks

Not a real good pic of the pontil, but it looks a melted pontil to me. Not a transitional but a hand gathered handmade marble, most likely from the Navarre, Ohio plant. Hope this helps. thanks

Fond one you might like. 1" naked Berry Pink. Not in the best of condition, but if ya want it give me a holler.

When you drive 50 or more miles to see a box of cateyes!

Yes, that was what I was asking, should have been clearer. Here is another one I used to have. I believe it was 15/16", but my memory aint what it use to be. thanks

Interesting Ronnie; I have heard and considered the "hand gathered" theory of companies other the M.F.C.(but that is another subject), but have not heard the term hand gathered and handmade used for any glass companies other than those prior to M.F.C. Have you seen any type of pontil(s) on these companies marbles? Not doubting, just curious. thanks

Not all of this type of marble has a melted pontil. Some of the pontils were clean enough there was no need to melt them. I have seen some, but very few that still have the original pontil. thanks

7/8" with a regular pontil. I believe it is from Navarre.

Thank you Steph and Galen. And Yo Duff ! thanks

After a long illness, I am finally back among the living. If I owe you any money or marbles, please let me know. On the other hand if you owe me any money or marbles, please let me know. My ebay name was/is mibsandmore. I have no current listings. Even learning how to take pics with a camera (good luck with that). Very nice to be back. Thanks.

might be just me or my lousy monitor, but the 1st two look kinda "messy" for cac's. thanks.

i believe the "larger" ones were used as furniture casters. this one weighs in at 1 7/8" thanks.

this one has all of the colors at the surface. thanks.

one with a faint "9" but a rather distinct cut/shear mark. thanks.

pretty cool. here's another interesting pic from nasa. called the "Eye of God"
