Gladys Posted March 16, 2021 Report Share Posted March 16, 2021 Hi Everyone I have been out off loop since giving up FB altogether last year ! I sure do miss Mib groups and there help! I was hoping on getting I.D. for marble below thank you so much! I believe it has been in water a long time at some point b/c abalone colors.

Steph Posted March 16, 2021 Report Share Posted March 16, 2021 Hiya. At first glance I was thinking glass which had been reworked over a torch. But maybe that was the "abalone" catching my eye. A lot of nice natural looking views on that. I'll guess Alley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted March 16, 2021 Report Share Posted March 16, 2021 I'd say there's a good chance it's from Sistersville. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'llhavethat1 Posted March 16, 2021 Report Share Posted March 16, 2021 same train of thoughts... has it been washed in soapy water yet, or did you find it this way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvrons Posted March 17, 2021 Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 Sounds like they were dug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gladys Posted March 17, 2021 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 yes I think you are correct I imagine that the earth would play a part in the magic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvrons Posted March 17, 2021 Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 Definitely dug. The silver abalone happens on certain glass being buried in the dirt for many years. Dirt with the correct moisture, temps, time, etc. Not all dug marbles will have it. The majority of dug marbles do not have the abalone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
