Steph Posted January 31, 2019 Report Share Posted January 31, 2019 There's much wear on the glass. Maybe from being played with. Being stored with steelies takes an additional toll though, so separate your metal from your glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted January 31, 2019 Report Share Posted January 31, 2019 The two big ones more to the middle (with red patches) are 1960's Vitro All-Reds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted January 31, 2019 Report Share Posted January 31, 2019 The biggest one here is a cat's eye ... cat's eyes aren't usually valuable, but someone might pay just for the size. Another big one above the biggest one might also be a cat's eye. The big marbles on the left are slags, which are popular marbles from the first three decades of the 1900's. The black and yellow marbles might be Christensen Agates. Christensen Agates are a popular marble but two color ones without special patterns still probably wouldn't bring a lot of money. You also have some Akro Corkscrews here ... with a lot of damage. Even one small ding can lower a marble by more than half of what it would be worth if completely damage-free. Soooo ... that's part of what you have in this group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
