FACET :
The oldest agate marbles manufactured in Germany were ground round by hand, upon inspection with a loupe and bright light while slowly rotating the mib you will see a flickering or wavering of the light reflection off the marble from the individual facets or actual flat spots over the entire 
surface indicating the agate is indeed hand ground. There are also facets on older German handmade glass marbles where the pontil was ground smooth.
