Hello.  Welcome to the forum. 

Those bottom marbles (labeled A) are popular ones.  They're called wirepulls.  Made by Veiligglas in Amsterdam in the 50's and 60's.    

The picture labeled B has more common-looking marbles. If those were found here in America, I would say easily American on them. Mostly Marble King, with maybe some Vitro, and maybe a few West Virginia swirls.  These companies did export to Europe.

Dear Steph much appreciated, as you are so quick with your reply I guess I include some more pictures ;')

This first one is about 42 mm diameter. And I figure it to be something special , btw the swirl in the middle is barely seeable without very strong light.

At that size and with the iridescent finish, that would be a modern marble, likely made in Mexico.  Vacor de Mexico is the main producer of marbles greater than  25 mm.  

It's very pretty.  Someone might be willing to pay a few dollars for it.   Larger marbles have their own appeal.   It's possible that it's still being made though.
