From this single view, it looks like a good possibility of German striped opaque to me, Chris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent1986 Posted August 26, 2023 Report Share Posted August 26, 2023 After digging about 70 marbles in our back yard, My wife found a mason jar full at an antique shop to help jump start my personal collection. This frog is full of a few of my favorite swirls, corkscrews and baseballs from that jar!! If you can identify anything give me a shout!! I’ll post some photos of my dug marbles as well as some of the other varieties from that jar soon! Happy marble hunting all!! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool, it's always fun to find marbles in unexpected places! It looks like you have a half dozen or so Peltier Rainbos, a couple of Vitros, Ravenswoods and perhaps an Akro Corkscrew. It often takes more than one view to positively ID a marble though. If you are looking for ID help, post the marbles up in the Marble I.D.'s section - three or four in each thread, with a few different views of each marble makes it easiest for everyone, and . . .

Brent1986 Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 Thank you Ric! I never thought I’d have a Ravenswood!! Sounds like I have more research to do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
