orbboy Posted September 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 These three are wounded. Touch mark? Rot? Finger spots? Who has any theories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikie_T Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 EXPLOSION........ LOL. WOW.... those are some amazing marbles.... Theory.... maybe water while the glass was hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orbboy Posted September 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 Gutta Percha were made from tree sap around 1860-1870ish time. Maybe a little later. I guess that based on marbles I find them with. I don't think anyone knows for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 Nice Guttas, I think the damage is melt spots. They stayed too close to a heat source for too long, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orbboy Posted September 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 Yeah they are very bubbled and melted looking. Wish I had one in crappy condition. I would put put a flame to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
