Are There Any Popeyes In These Images?

I have a chance to buy 3 jars of marbles at a local auction house and am wondering if I am seeing popeyes or am I misidentifying them. The pics are not the greatest as I have not seen them in person (tomorrow morning I will be there live) yet but wanted to see if anyone could help out. I see popeyes in all 3 jars, possibly.

Any help identifying these marbles would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi.

I don't think I see popeyes.

I think maybe a mix of old and new, with some Jabos which might include the ones you think look like popeyes.

I definitely see a little bit of vintage -- West Virginia swirls, Peltier Rainbos, at least one pretty Vitro (though still a relatively common one).

But there are lots of cat's eyes, and I'm pretty sure I see a modern Chinese marble in there. And I do think I'm seeing a lot of Jabos. (Jabos being modern marbles made in the U.S.)

I would not get in a bidding war with anyone over that. If I could pick them up cheap at a store, I might buy them in case there are a few surprises inside, but I wouldn't get my hopes up.
