Jzoook6 Posted January 5 Report Share Posted January 5 At first, these looked identical to me--but I think one is a Ravenswood (top) and one might be a Peltier Zebra? (bottom). If not Peltier, then Alley? .59 and .62 respectively. Thanks in advance for any thoughts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akroorka Posted January 5 Report Share Posted January 5 I do not see Pelt here. I suck at WVS ID but I know a WVS when I see one--or two. It is a 75% chance that these are both Alley Agate marbles. Marble--On!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jzoook6 Posted January 5 Author Report Share Posted January 5 Thank you both! I hear you----but what about the top left pic in the bottom group? that rounded little tail flap guy (im 100% sure theres a better term for it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carowill Posted January 6 Report Share Posted January 6 Alley (both) x3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jzoook6 Posted January 6 Author Report Share Posted January 6 Ok ok I officially concede with a x3! Thank you. But for the sake of my marble education, could someone tell me the proper name for the buttflap circled below? Is it a cut mark? tia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted January 6 Report Share Posted January 6 The (seam) you have circled in the Zebra pic is a "cutoff mark" where the shears cut the hot glob during manufacture. The straight line on the bottom middle picture is the other seam where the glob was cut. The Alley in your OP just shows a fold in the glass not a shear mark IMO. I'm not that great at explaining things, maybe @wvrons will see this post and expand on the subject, fer sher better than I can. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
