The "Score!" thread. Post your exciting finds here...
B-rett66 replied to bumblebee's topic in General Marble & Glass Chat
Did a road trip with my brother today. Found a couple new antique shops. Would you look at those potential yellow and blue flames. Not sure if that’s ox blood or not but it’s sure is cool. Now I just have to find marbles that match them. The Hunt is on. -
I’ll second that

I'm going to save the pic and continue to watch the videos. I like to research.

Thanks Akroorka, To me, it's fun to look and research to see if I can find the answer myself. Its tough to tell the difference between a Peltier and Kokomo marble to some extent but there is tell-tale characteristics that distinguish them apart like elongated bubbles and colors. What's even tougher is the fact that both companies used each others equipment and raw materials. The color of this marble is what intrigues me.

So I’ve been looking high and low and watching Stephen Bahr’s videos on Kokomo marbles and I’m still not sure. I did find a pic of a marble that was posted on the very first page of “Peltier Tuesday “way back in 2021 that looks similar. My marble is the first of several and the archive pic of a Peltier is last. Any opinions? I know the colors are different and as Stephen says that for every few thousand Peltiers you’ll find one Kokomo. Wow can I be that lucky?🙏🫣

No, I wish it did. My son says it’s his most prized Mable related item.

Picked up from a local collector. Seems older than dirt. My son won’t even let me touch it. Can you believe it. 😂😂

Well, I can’t believe I won this one.👀 Put a bid on it and went to bed. Thought to myself, I’ll never get that. Next morning I payed for it. I thought I’d post it and rest my eyes for a while. -

Super nice surprise
-
Yeah , I screwed up. I was looking for a a good Alley flame and I picked this one out and posted it. Then I realized it was a Peltier.
-
It may not be a West Virginia marble but it’s a nice Slag/Swirl
-
My son had this one in his Peltier box. Not sure if it has a name but that is where he put it. Has nice bubbles.
-
What about a Vacor Blue-Jay
-
Or maybe Alley cobalt blue swirl.
-
While looking at some Vacor marble pics, I’ve already identified several that I didnt know I had. Till now. WOW, I got to get out more often. 😁

Well I did it again.Just found an exact match. What a Rookie. I always forget to study the Vacor marbles. Well , that’s what separates the Marble Men from the Marble Boys. Say hello to a Marble Boy. 😂😂😂 Thanks guys movin on.

What is this marble anyway ? I can’t seem to find a match to save my live. I was thinking Spider-Man colors but the red seems a little bit orange for a peltier and the blue is off for Akro, unless it’s a burnt variation. You know it never fails that as soon as I post it I’ll find an absolute identical, match to a marble online or in a book. LOL. Thanks

Here lately I’ve been seeing a few of these being posted. Is this a double ingot or just a really distinct cutline?
