Greeneyesgreenthumbs Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 A very nice marble here that has a CAC look but the metallic in this one gives me pause. Anyone know the ID of this one? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peltier Mibber Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 I would suppose it's possible since a majority of the metallic on machine made marbles is from crud on the rollers that perhaps rounded the marbles and transferred on to the surface of the glass.

I'llhavethat1 Posted March 5, 2021 Report Share Posted March 5, 2021 Pattern looks CAC. If that's crazing in the glass probably didn't make it through quality control, and might have been in the ground? both that and iridescence can be caused by being buried. Nice looking marble though, do you remember where you got it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 That's does have a really nice pattern on it, and it looks CAC to me too. Not so sure about metallic though, looks a bit more like some sort of impurity to me. And it reminded me of these . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted March 6, 2021 Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 CAC and a mistake. an error, not any planned production. Not metallic, it is impurity on the surface and all companies had it at some time or another. Even CAC had errors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greeneyesgreenthumbs Posted March 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2021 I’ve got a few Metallic Champion Swirls. But I don’t have anything else metallic in a swirl. Better pic here; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have several bags and boxes of marbles that were taken from my grandmothers attic when she passed. I’ve been sorting thru these as my time permits. This marble, came from this attic stash in Palmerdale Alabama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
