chocobogreens Posted December 7, 2020 Report Share Posted December 7, 2020 So, i was going through my old marbles from when i was a kid that i am sure are run-of-the-mill but i noticed a few of my cat's eyes looked odd. I included some pics. First pic has some that are tri color cats eyes but have a subsurface mark that is a deep brown/reddish. Second is a green marble with a rotten banana shape. The following 3 look clear but require white background and good lighting to see the lines- a clear transparent with barely visible whispy lines. Followed by two marbles, green and blue that have thin, single strand jalapeno-like eyes instead of banana shaped All of these are near the surface but below, not painted on. The last one is a transparent blue marble that has what looks like a lattice core, but actually has a straight cable-like web which is not centered. I tried watching the identifying cat's eyes videos for some info. thank you for any insight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted December 7, 2020 Report Share Posted December 7, 2020 The majority of cat's eyes are cheaply made marbles. A lot of oddities happy. Impurities. Cold rolls. The last marble looks interesting though. More views? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steph Posted December 8, 2020 Report Share Posted December 8, 2020 Maybe a Master on the last one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocobogreens Posted December 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2020 I found a website identifying akro marbles, one is called an experimental oxblood. It looks just like this, obviously white not oxblood. Could that be it? It's towards the bottom https://old.buymarbles.com.buymarbles.com/marblealan/akro.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
