I think there is a good chance this is a Vitro Tomato - one of the coolest game marbles out there, IMO.

This is a real oddball, IMO. If you look at the last photo it appears that the whole area may have been "black" at one point and the bull's eye was made by removing the surface paint/surface in a ring. My guess it is very soft. And if you look at some areas it appears very light maybe even white underneath - like the vast majority of the marble's surface has a dirty patina. I forget what they call that very soft almost chalky white stuff they used to make marbles out of (@Alan ?) but that's what this reminds me of. Does it seem light for it's size?
As for the decorations, my best guess is that it may have been a painted clay marble at some point and wear has produced what appears to be a more elaborate form of decoration. It's also possible some kid decorated it themself at some point. It certainly wouldn't be the first time I have seen homemade decorations on a marble. Whatever it is, I am guessing it doesn't look anything like it did the day it was made.
Thank you! This is awesome!
