Yeah, I agree, especially when I consider how long they must have been together for. If I did pass any on, I'd at least keep a neat little trio.
-
Thanks for the offer, however I think postage may be a little steep!
-
Yep, you're right. I spotted one included in an Ebay lot of marbles last week and looked up what it was. Weird that this topic should come up so soon on here, and even weirder that only a few days before that, me and my son had been looking up what the most sides a dice can have is. I didn't bother bidding, but I'd like to pick one up at some point.
-
Aha, thanks for that info. I might offer a few of these up for swaps at some point, if anyone in the UK is interested.
-
Yeah, I thought it may be a swirl, but wasn't sure because it's not that "swirly". Thanks!
-
I put up the one on the right yesterday on Peltier Tuesdays, then started to wonder more about it. Both 5/8 and came in a lot including the other group of Peltiers that I just posted.
-
These all came together and spotting this picture, can see that they probably originated together. I get the feeling they are some of the older Pelts? They also came with 2 others, which I'll post separately. All 5/8.

Akro corkscrew was my original thought, but the last one I put up, thinking it was a cork, I was told it wasn't, so I reconsidered this one too, as the swirl isn't that tight. Thanks!
-
Just over 9/16. No idea, it came with a peltier, but I'm not aware of any pelts like this. Any thoughts welcome.
-
Thanks, I won't lose sleep over it 😀
-
Bang on 51/64, very bubbly. I'm really not sure at all with this one.
-
So would the metallic stuff just be furnace crud? It's a lovely feature.
-
Good to hear, there isn't a great variety of books over here and I thought this will definitely be useful. I'd been meaning to get it for a while but kept ending up buying marbles instead, so I asked my sister to buy it for me!
-
Got this for my birthday, and I think you might be right. Size is pretty much exactly 5/8, so would this be a clue?
-
Aha, that is an interesting suggestion, not something I've studied yet. Out of this collection, it is mainly old stuff, however the few more modern ones do seem to be some Vacors. Thanks, I'll look that way...
-
5/8 Opaque with translucent areas, swirls surface and into the interior.
-
Here's some pictures of the peltier that made me think the left hand one is pelt.
-
Anyone? 😀
-
@akroorka any thoughts?
-
This came from a collection that definitely has Ravenswoods (as confirmed on here), so that is most likely. Thanks
-
Yep, that could make sense...
-
Good point, would you say those are the Japanese figure 8s?
-
Ooh, interesting. The pink on the left one seems very close to another pelt I'll put up for comparison when I get the chance.
-
That's what I was hoping 😀
