akroorka Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 Wow—nice group, they all appear to be in very good shape. The first image, the top one is an “Agate”, or stone marble imho. More images are needed of this one. I am pretty sure that you have a “Brick” mixed into this bunch, the red and white more solid than the others. The “pin pontil” that you show is actually a “blow out” made during production—a bubble in the glass that exploded out-words and became part of the marble—a factory defect, not aftermarket damage. I hope that this helps, you have some great slag’s here and they may have to be broken down into threes or fours with proper images of all sides to get a good ID. I for one am looking forward to it. Marble—On!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a great group and what I was looking for is right. Look for facets --or flat spots on the agate. The Brick appears to be an Akro imho. The rest are just killer and I will leave them up for opinions for now. What a great find! Marble--On!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
