Chad G. Posted September 19, 2020 Report Share Posted September 19, 2020 I only have the opaque's, no transparent Alley green or in between, this is it. One shot outside and one inside. I love the transparent green but can't get my hand's on any good one's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Oregon Posted September 19, 2020 Report Share Posted September 19, 2020 I somehow lost a group of ID's of Corals on a bunch of marbles that I had. Here is an old picture of the two boxes. Probably searching "Corals" on this tie might bring up those pics that I posted for confirming ID's. Main thing is that there are many marbles that are closer (red & green) but not all are Corals. Ignore the Pelt in the middle of the top box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted September 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2020 Very nice array Al, the transparent green also appear to be one of the more elusive one's for you as well, I do see 4 or 5 in your boxes, way ahead of the big "0" I have, " good show " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nantucketdink Posted October 9, 2020 Report Share Posted October 9, 2020 Upper left example is a coral with a bonus nice metallic swirl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted October 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2020 The two top example's look almost as if they came off the roller's right behind each other, nice window's, I keep lookin for the clear coral but always has some type of irreconcilable damage, i.e. fractures or heavy use, maybe I just need to look a little harder, thanks for posting the pics, I'll stumble across a few good one's some day, keep's it interesting, by the way first time I've ever seen metalic in a coral marble. Nice!! Chad G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvrons Posted October 11, 2020 Report Share Posted October 11, 2020 At which Alley location were the Corals produced ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted October 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2020 Not completely up on the historical side yet, just have my favorites, I always thought Pennsboro since most often associated w/ Alley, but read a thread that said St. Mary's, whom I link w/ the old Marble King factory, more than a little confusing for me ?? Clarification would be much appreciated Ron !! Thank you. Chad G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad G. Posted October 17, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2020 Great mibs man, I'm so looking forward to getting some clear base that don't have any hits or wear.

Very nice, thanks Now where's mine ??????????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
