Pelt Cooperheads?

Recommended Posts

I've had these for a while now and always leaned pelt but, I showed them to a fellow marble collector local to me and he thought they were pelt copperheads. I've never seen one except of the pelt info-site but the one picture they have is pretty poor. Anybody want got take a stab at these? 3 marbles total each pic is of one marble shot at different angles. Appreciate all the help!

Thanks! I like them a lot. I picked these up at a garage sale few months ago and they are absolutely mint. I have about 6-7 more, it's almost like they had a set or something. It was a first. I Def never found any in such great condition in the street before. I'll try to get some pics of the others.

Or someone else who`s not dealing with a new laptop that did not come with an instruction book - - - (I`ve ordered one)

They`re there, just lower down on p. 13 than I remembered.

Yes! That`s the same as in Steph`s study hall! Just takes a little scrolling. Thank you! And Steph will thank you tomorrow!

Found it and one more :

Some of the marbles in the links look like they're made out of metal and are called Copperheads.  That looks so cool and makes sense to me some.  Other ones that are called Copperheads are a very lovely pastel and lots of delicate colors such as the OP.  Those being called Copperheads seem like they're not  and don't match the metallic quality. So historical record appears to have some conflicts in it, trying to resolve.

Sorry, browncat, yours are not copperheads . . .

Some have darker colors, as Chicagocyclist says, but the classic type is the pastel version, like mine. Ideally, it includes teal.

This is a killer Copperhead  . . .

I don't think the OP marbles are Peltier. They look a lot like some of the P&R types Joep has found in the Netherlands - I think there was some speculation about Vitros sold overseas but I don't know about that - they do look more Vitro than any other American company to me though.
