What fun you had! Good variety of quality marbles you gleaned out of the masses. I just want to point out what looks to possibly be a Peltier Chocolate Cow. Last 2 photos bottom row between the Red Bee and transparent yellow swirl. Deserves a closer look?

Fire- The photo is not mine and just shown to let you see what your marble probably is. Depending on the specific mineral content contained in either paints, glazes or raw clay any of these can glow. I can't tell if the glaze is UV or the clay underneath for yours. Try checking that big gap hole in the glaze to see which it is.

Speckled painted and glazed clay - might be out of an early Ohio pottery, like these:

I like your philosophy on what you put into your temple (body that is) akroorka. I've been an ovo-lacto vegetarian ( eggs and dairy allowed- no meat) for 40 years and try to keep on the organic side of food. That's getting mighty expensive considering mainstream food is already outrageous. I have a handful of nuts and some fresh fruit with an espresso or latte to start the day. This is very light but energizing to me. If I ate a heavy lumberjack style breakfast I would just want to go lay back down. B-rett 66 your memorial breakfast story is awesome! I'll take a dozen of those speckled eggs Fire - beautiful!

Heaton Sulfide - LOL that's a comical little twist but I like it! BTW - I meant #2 is the Heaton Oyster (not #3).

All Heatons I believe. Furnace debris (aka Oven Brick) is all I know for the 'artifact' in #1. Oyster for #3 - Fire Cracker #4.

This is wrong on so many levels. I hope you call them out right here because they deserve the public shame and embarrassment. They consciously ripped you off.

Today's vast internet market is flooded with uneducated buyers and unscrupulous or ignorant sellers. It's enormously irritating, but there's absolutely no way to control that or what price someone is willing to pay for 'whatever'. If someone overpays because they are foolishly under-educated tough noogies, since they have not opted to seek higher learning or expert advice. Reverse that and you can score a rare or valuable marble for a pittance if you know what your looking at and the seller does not. There's nothing new under the sun here where collecting anything is concerned - it's just 'more so' due to internet access. Be smart and educated or be stupid and gullible - everyone has that choice.

The OP looks like a common surface dyed clay - could be various American or German/European made. To my knowledge there is no way of determining the maker outside of being found in original labeled packaging.

This is my pal Mumford. He loves to cram himself into crazy tight places for nap time. He can be found snoozing in small boxes - baskets - buckets and even mixing bowls if left out on the counter!

Looks like a newer MK - a modern version of the old MK Hercules.

In the 70s I could smoke a dime bag of Panama Red in one night and then devour several Hostess Suzy Qs. Talk about dreamy and creamy! Both of these fine products I believe are long discontinued. Nowadays it's medical grade CBD and an organic mico greens salad. Staying happy in a healthier way!

The OP is a MK beauty! The Peltier labeled marble posted just above by treetiger appears to be a Peltier Sunrise (as opposed to Sunset) - the various bagged marbles are modern "Fantasy" advertising bags.

Such a variety of great marbles in this running thread! The Jabo peewees are sure a favorite of mine - so much color and pattern packed into such a small marble. Here's some of my favorites that were gifted to me - thank you!

Nice Pelt for sure. There are some red Peltier Onyx slags that are a very particular type. These rarer types do not appear to have a completely transparent red base, and have heavy areas where light will not show through. Many times these exhibit brownish, tan or mahogany tones along with deep dense red. they have very heavy internal swirling that fills up most or all of the base glass. I've only found them in 9/16". Your photos possibly hint of this type.

Agree with Alan - nothing overly special for a Master. Here's a similarly colored one of mine that has the addition of blue.

Vitro Blue Devil IMHO. Colors and size are right. HTF -nice!

Peltiers for certain - closest to what some collectors know as the Pelt Sunrise - with a thin splash of white. Sort of a hybrid of Sunset and Sunrise I guess, but I have never seen AV in either of these.

Looks like it could possibly be a hand gathered CAC American Agate to me, with that type of glass/pattern/colors.

In the above group shot from the proposed trade selections the one in the bottom right corner looks like it might be a Golden Rebel?? If it is, and in nice condition I would heavily consider that trade.

Interesting find for sure! Hard to see much detail, but that black opal could be a real winner. I would want a certified gemologist to take a look at everything for certification and valuation. The light green square 'cushion cut' example is not a Peridot (wrong shade of green) but looking at the weak color saturation and minimal faceting I would guess possibly Hiddenite (very soft - difficult to facet). Just speculation but the watery green shade looks right. Could also be Fluorite but the clarity seems high for that.

The 2nd (red orange w/ dark tracers bubbly mossy base) is an earlier type Akro Imperial.

I remember seeing this episode well before I started collecting marbles. At that time I would have never picked up on the fact that they were using what looks like 1930s -40s Alleys when this episode was set in the 1870s. Being poor rural farmers children they would have never been using glass marbles of any kind - but rather clay 'commies'. I loved this show, and being an 'old soul' I would fantasize about how cool it would be to live like the Ingalls family. Simple, honest living and pretty happy with what they had. Thanks for sharing!

Agree w/ Cheese - 100% CAC glass and colors. This one did get a little 'corky' looking in some views.

Looks like a MCR (multi-colored Rainbo) to me, not an MCS which are earlier NLR period.
