Not identifying poison Oak gave me an evil butt rash after picnicking... Had to fish my underwear out of trees during summer camp... I have seen a UFO...

Dead baby birds is the lie. And Cousin works for Raytheon is the lie....

I vote --- heavy Jabo vibes for me...

This slagolicious 5/8ths " is beyond my abilities to guess. Any help would be great. Thanks and best wishes.
-
I have a strong guess on Peltier for this one. If so, could it have a name? If not, that is also cool. 5/8ths " . Your advice is always appreciated.
-
This 5/8ths " mib is tough for me to speculate about. Vitro ??, MK?, Pelt?, dunno..Any advice would be great. Thanks--
-
This 5/8ths " mib seems to be on a transparent base. My wild guess is Vitro/maybe Tiger's Eye #1 ??; but I need more experienced minds to weigh in. Thanks!--

My vote is --the one with multiple pics is a pop-eye. The other two, only shown once, are German handmades. Great find! Congratulations!😃

Now that is 'spreading the wealth'!! What kid doesn't think that they have found treasure when they come across that? If I were a kid and found one of your bags, I would be over the Moon with joy!! -

Instead of Valuable marbles, use ice cubes to shoot with. Th evidence just melts away. BTW, I'll bet these beauties have value- Don't make the same mistake twice. This is what I do with marbles that I am not excited about... I wash them up, dry them, put them in a small zip lock plastic baggy with a note that says "Finders-Keepers! These marbles are now yours to brighten your day and start your collection. Do Not Eat Them!! Best wishes", and secretly deposit them in public places like bus stops for others to find. It is kind of like Geo-cashing. Try it! The Good Karma will be paid forward. -
Do any of them have cut 'seams'? If so, take pics of them and show us. That can help us I.D. it for you.

yes. These are called "Cold Rolls". Either the gob of molten glass, the spiral cork screw rollers, or a combo of both might have been slightly cooler and the glass simply wrinkled and folded instead of incorporating itself into a smooth surfaced sphere. They can be kinda cool since no two are ever alike. It also looks like part of it is a 'drizzly tail' due to the same situation.
-
Sure looks like it to me! Great find!
-
You have a beginning and/or end of the run- marble (Vacor/Octopus). I must state that ratio of ribbon to transparent glass makes me think this. It is a unique one for this style. That Grape 'Kool-ade' Transparent glass really isn't made by any other company that I know of. Compare it to mine and see what I mean. You have a great marble!

X4 --and keep that one safe. Pink is a rare color in marbles!
