Thanks for the info the one you say is a rainbo i think looks like a brain its so strange looking.

I just have a few that I am really struggling with. I promise I will take a break for awhile after these. I rather enjoy going through all the old post and searching books and internet. When I find a challange its game on hyper fixation here I come! The first one I am really confused about so I took a lot of pictures. The second picture of the blue I am just wondering about the light patch. The last one is crystal clear to look at till the light on the camera hits its or you shine a light on it. All 3 are average size marbles. Any info would be great thank you..

I have spent a week in our garden raking and digging up blackberry bushes " I hate those thorny things!" Then after an over night rain I walked down to look at my job well done at voila' I see this little guy!

Thank you for the info… I have a feeling this one has some siblings in my beautiful marble mess.

I don’t have much knowledge on my marble collection. I mostly just know I like them and have collected well a little more than a few. I don’t know the size of this marble just that it’s big.

To respond to the first message.. I don’t have a favorite marble I absolutely love them all. I do however have a few that intrigue me more than others so thank you for pointing me in the right direction. So to respond to my fellow Pennsylvanian it is a blast until it drives everyone here crazy 😆 thank you both for the warm welcome.

I have been collecting marbles for a long time but only when i would find them out in the wild.. Crazy I could spot a marble from a block away in 6 feet of brush under a log in a swampy marsh.. Lol for real though its weird they just jump out at me. I never purchased them or spent much time on learning things about them until the last few years. So now I have this massive collection of antique and vintage marbles and no actual knowledge. I just know they are old and i want to leave them to my kids someday I would love to learn more about them. I recently redid an ould farm house window so i could give the marbles proper display. However its not turning out to be what I expected in order for it to work proper I think my only option is to glue them.. I dont want to damage them in any way so I have paused for a moment on how to proceed. Anyway this is me with my marbles and my lack of marble knowledge. I was doing the gumball and jar display thing. I do believe this pretty little things should be seen. I find it incredible that something so little can hold the beauty and talent that they do. Im excited to be apart of this community and hope to learn more about my marbles. I added a few pictures of some of what I have and until I can come up with something for my windoe I am now on a hunt for a glass top table that I can use.
