The Nickel Guy

I can see that. The white part. I remember there was a thread about that ot too long ago.

Ah-ha! Is mine a Japanese Pincer? A look at this eBay listing has some very similar traits. The listing will go away someday but here's a link for now. ( Hope this is allowed )

That's funny it is the other way around for you Meep. I'll have to dig em out and post a group picture when my batteries are re-charged. Both in the camera and in me as well. It's late but it's nap time.

It was the gravy color that had me thinking Heaton. All those lines in a wave show up pretty neat under the UV. Kinda cool.

It was a recent gift of a mixture of all sorts of things. Not in a collection of sorts.

Ric, My batteries are dead but out of all the shots, these are my best two seams. Art yes, the marble glass is smooth as a baby's behind. I know what you mean by that.

Here is a group of the other seam. I tweaked these only because it was so hard to get a picture of the detail in the white/clear. I think I see that little thing on the gill of a bluegill or sunfish shape that Stephen bar points out in his Master Marble video on yooooo tube.

The thought did cross my mind. I agree. thanks Ric!

This 7/8th one is very bubbly. Neat but I haven't a clue what to call it or who might have made it. Can you please help and thank you!

Here's a shot with a UV light.

I have a bunch of Marble King 5/8 in players and none glow under UV. They are mostly white base Patch and Ribbon. I don't know why, but some of my shooters do. Now this one may not be a Patch and Ribbon of course but I am pretty sure it is a Marble King Patch. I have others that look just like it and do glow and others that do not. Without the UV light, it would be hard to tell. Just an observation.

This one is right at 1/2 inch but no more. It does glow orange under UV. A cute little thang. Thank you!

I forget what that often seen colored anomaly is there we see on Master Marbles. ( See bottom right ) I think one of Stephen Behr's videos called it a cut off. I think I got this one right. Perhaps not a nick, but maybe a flaw in the making which is easy to see in the top two views.

Not many Master marbles in my collection. This is a very nice one.

Thanks a lot Ric. I agree now that Vacor Dragon is what it is. At least for now. Having that pattern and it being a pee wee makes it one of my favorites.

I would be very careful and pick the best without any damage at all and try to get at least one of each kind. Awesome and probably a bit on the expensive side.

Could this be a Vitro Sweet Pea Pee Wee? LOL ( say that 3 times real fast ) I suppose there is a chance it is a Vacor Dragon Pee Wee too?

I very much appreciate the time and thought you put into responding. It also is educational for me and others to visit this little thread. Thank you so much. It did not go un-noticed. You are a couple of good ones, you guys.

Okee Doke! Jabo it is and it goes to the head of the class in the classics. Thanks guys. I'll fix the title.

Thanks Ric. I just don't see the butt crackish thing going on here. There appears to me to be two seams. I said it's not Jabo in the first post because I just didn't think it was but hey, I certainly could be wrong and it is a very nice looking marble in hand. I have a good number of classics. If it is one, it is one of my best.

Here's a neat marble under a half inch. Opaque Green base, Yellow and Red Patches on opposite sides that connect. The colors of a Stop Light. Can anyone tell me who made it and if it has a nickname? Thank you!

This is a very nice marble, it is not Jabo. Anyway, I would surely appreciate some ID help here and thank you very much. It is 19/32 inch. It is a new mib that rolled in yesterday. I see that "V" and think Vitro but it is not continuous, The seam just happens to end there.

I got a gift in the mail today from one of you. I will keep my buddy anonymous but not hide my amazement. Thank you my freind. There is a nice Vitro Tiger eye, sweet pee wees, Master brushed patches and more. Almost half light up with UV light. I haven't quite taken a sit down yet, just to take and edit these images. I need to study them. This display box looks to be an expertly repurposed jewely box. Home made and I love it! Quite a coincidence that I am having two of Lawrence Alley III cigar boxes fitted with glass as I type this at the mirror and glass shop. I am dumbstruck! I got all this and some change. Wooo Hoooo! With flash and outside.

I have a handful and mine are Vacor that presently go by the name of "Confetti"

Bone collectors, you guys are!
