the-key Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 Greetings! Cool site. My first post! At age 10 I was given my first jar of clay and ceramic marbles in a Ball jar from my 84 year old neighbor. Granted, I've aged a bit, and have actually gained a few -- as opposed to have lost a few -- of my marbles. So now I'm looking to purchase one or more of the old -- not repros -- of the Golden rule marbles. Any ideas on where to find them, how to distinguish old from new, and what they cost? Thanks!!!

Contact Peter Caparelli at Land of Marbles as he literally has a love affair with this particular marble and is researching it. DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m!b$ Posted September 13, 2009 Report Share Posted September 13, 2009 Are the "faceted" plastic ones with an engraved plastic band, considered true Golden Rule marbles? Like these: marbles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
