Then I'll say that my first impression was Akro, but if that Pelty green went all the way through I would have completely abandoned that thought. Now I'm still entertaining the thought but have no strong feelings either way. Might run it by Dani if I wanted to pursue the Akro possibility more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted August 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 I appreciate the input folks, please keep it coming. It seems we are all in agreement . . . It's not a WV Swirl. 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'llhavethat1 Posted August 22, 2021 Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 doesn't look Pelt to my eyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted August 22, 2021 Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 Another few shots may help. I would like to see a shot of the bottom(yellow) to see what that big long seam/fold in the left image does. That lighter yellow part looks interesting. My first reaction without reading and just looking was"Cool Marble King". It could be a dug Akro though, some strange things showed up in the digs. Marble--On!!

wvrons Posted August 22, 2021 Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 If the green was opaque I might say Akro. But with the green so transparent I am going with Vitro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted August 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 Well, I am glad that worked out as expected. A couple of years ago I had to convince brother Bill that this marble wasn't a Pelt or an Akro before he'd let go of it, and I sure didn't want to give it back!

Ric Posted August 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2021 I must also say, much of my knowledge of Vitro marbles, and my affection for them, comes from Chuck B., without whom, I never would have been able to pull this one from a pile.
