"Helmet" is one of a few names collectors have for Tri-lite variations. What is and isn't called a Helmet can,  from what I've encountered, be a little tricky sometimes.

Someone could probably break it down way better than I, so hang in there. Nice marbles by the way. I probably would have called a few of them Helmets myself. It's maybe in the patch coverage for one thing...👍😎

Like Ron Shepherd told me when I first started, a person can study 7 days a week, hours each day, for many, many years and still be fortunate to identify 75% of what they are looking at. He's right. 

The best of the best will miss occasionally. It's going to happen. Just so much stuff out there. Twists and turns and rabbit holes, etc....

Alot of the time it works itself out in the end. Teamwork, multiple sets of eyes. That's what these folks are collectively good at IMO. Marbles!

Thanks. He’s the one that got me really interested in this. I didn’t know him but I wish I did. Just from the videos he did with Stephen Bahr and his posts. 🙂

Have a great day everyone 😄

 

Great bunch in that Last image--all are very nice--the last shot should be in a book--very nice images.

These Vitro with the bright but subdued yellow have always knocked my socks off.

Marble--On!!
