Post A Pic Of Your Rarest Marble!

[JVVmarbles]

I thought this might be fun...post a pic of the rarest marble (handmade or machine) in your collection, those unique marbles you only find once in a lifetime. Here's mine, a LARGE 1-3/8" beachball Indian Lutz. I've never seen one like it.

I'm looking forward to seeing all your RARE beauties!

I have a 3/4" Akro oxblood and light brown patch. I've not seen too many others, but I don't think the marble is rare, but it is possibly the rarest marble in my small collection. It is in collectible condition with lots of wear and bites.

WOW Jeroen, that's one INCREDIBLING AMAZINBLING MARBLE!!!

Here's one i traded to GB Chinas for his labor & expertise on my new roof! This is not in any book! Early Period China (1840's to 1860's) four quadrant four flower! Thanks for taking this picture Al, you bag man you! Group shot i did.

Hey Jeroen, do you have any of those "Greiner Marbles"?

Go to the thread titled " Show us your first glass marbles mass-produced."

Here are some of the rarest marbles in my collection. As mentioned above - they might not be rare in the real world but they are rare in my part of the world and in my collection. Hope you enjoy them. You may have seen one or two posted before.

There is a Christensen Agate Multi Color Swirl, a Leighton (ID by Mr. Block), a Christensen Brick. and an old Vitro Parrot,

It's a cane cut marble, so there must be more of them out there (if any others 'survived' ofcourse'!).

There's at least one more that "survived", I've seen one in Lauscha, but the condition of that one was poor, your's is much better.

It's not colorful, but quite unusual.

Here is one of the rarest marbles in my collection. It's a superman hybrid popeye that is 9/16" and wet mint!

Great thread, let's keep it going!

Thanks

Here's another really rare one, a large 1-5/8" Uranium based glass marble with a brightly colored band on it. A pic without and with blacklight (Uranium glass glows brightly green under a blacklight).

[winnie]

Great marbles folks!!

This one is 7/8,German machiene-made,2 seams.

The pattern looks simple and a bit strange to me.

thanks.

1 9/16"

thanks.

[marblemansion]

I dunno - I have only seen about 5 of these - and none of the others were as as nice condition as this one....maybe everyone has a Peltier Pearlized Patch in their collection.

[marboman]

I can't think of a marble that would be the rarest in my collection,but I do have a rare marble realated item.From what I understand only one hundred were made.It's in mint condition.Got it at a rock and bottle show.

[ann]

Wouldn't be interested in parting with it, wouldya?

[clydetul62]

Nice book. Is yours a later version. Mine is signed but the pics arent in color. These goes very high, anywhere 200-400.

[clydetul62]

Very hard to pick one. For my CAC's I would say my 7/8 six color flame and the purple sub.

For Pelt's I have to go for the 7/8" greycoat, 7/8" flaming dragon w/ aventurine, a clear zebra, A green lantern, and a green/black (green hornet). I am still looking for the hornet.

Even though the last isnt a handmade its still related. A birdcage paperweight that says China on bottom.
