The Nickel Guy

Thank you kindly. I think I have a majority that could be Ravenswood Swirls in the above picture or is it generally just good enough to say they are simply WV Swirls? In a lot like I have there are certainly some that are better than others. Some have more eye appeal, an odd color combination, or cool pattern. If I had to pick my favorite 5 or 10 and leave the rest, I think it could be done within a half hour.

I have sorted my marbles a little better. These seem to be of the same style. I would bet numerous marble companies might be represented here and made this type. Please tell me if I am on the right track to identify further.

After a couple decades of no new marble purchases I discovered JABOs Some glow under blacklight. What names the 5/8 ones have or run they all are I'll probably never know except the Fancy Ones in the boxes which are larger, Here's all my recent snags. I guess the patterns are starting to get to me. Third Row second one down . . . .

A very nice welcome from you people. Thank you! My first marbles I'll be taking pictures of will probably turn out to be West Virginia Swirls. I'll be getting around to it near the end of the week. I do have them somewhat sorted.

Hiya I think I have about 17 paperweights in a bookcase. My favorite might be that satin one in the right front corner.

Howdy dooo! I have a small collection of marbles. I like them. I think I have maybe have about 700 in all. My name is The Nickel Guy because I collected Jefferson Nickels for many years. Might as well stick with it. My favorite marbles are probably Akro Agate Corkscrews. Lately I have been collecting Jabo Marbles. Thank you for the forum to learn from.
