Judith Werner Posted November 4, 2019 Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 These marbles belonged to my husband-who passed away in 2015 at age 92-so I believe these are 75 years old. I have been told they are banded agate-is that correct. I have 110 of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted November 4, 2019 Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 Some have bands. At least one has a bullseye. They are agates. I'm seeing signs of the damage which comes from some serious marble playing -- which some of us like to see. It would stop those from earning the "mint" label but they would be thought of as veterans instead. 75 years would put them back to 1944. Good chance they're a bit older than that. Call them early 1900's but the popularity of agates goes back even earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
