I have several with this same pattern. Is it a handgathered/transitional?

I know that if one looks hard enough they can find random 9’s on marbles. Of course finding a 9 on a marble doesn’t automaticallly mean that it’s a handgather or that it’s a transitional. Understanding this I am confident that this 9 is not a random one and that it signify’s at the very least that it was made either by the same company or by the same machine as the others that I have with this specific type of a 9 pattern.

I've never seen a marble that took a video to ID.

I don't think either of these is hand-gathered but then I can't watch the videos . . . I think they're just too big, and I'm tired of watching the lag-wheel spin.

Okay. Why did you say this? Wouldn’t both you and I be better off if you just moved along? So what I like taking a video to help with getting an ID. What’s it to you.

Please be respectful and show some gratitude to the people who give of their time and talents to help you identify marbles.

How exactly was I being disrespectful? His comment had nothing to do with helping. Please pay more attention.

I said it because I don't think your marbles are hand-gathered and I qualified my opinion by stating that I couldn't watch the videos.

And I assumed you were looking for help. It means nothing to me if your marbles are unidentified.

I am sorry that I offended you, and I promise it won't happen again.

Universally speaking, it's always been suggested by the good people here that take the time from their schedules that anyone listing a marble too please take a small handful of shots. Seam to seam, pole to pole, etc.

Usually this is said either when a person first joins marbleconnection, or when they post for an ID their first few times. Along with camera, lighting and background hints, etc.

I'm absolutely sure Ric meant zero disrespect. Pictures are always recommended VS. Downloading IMO 🙂

So let me make sure I am understanding this. You are identifying a marble that you admit that you have not been able to actually view and your basing this identification not on the pattern of the marble, not on the color, the size or any of those things, you’re basing your answer to its identity on the fact that the video wouldn’t play? You assumed right. I am looking for help. But you have only giving me incompetence and ignorance. I understand that you are experienced with marbles. I understand that had you been able to watch the video you would have been able to identify it accurately. But you didn’t do any of those things. You can on my post, made a derogatory statement about how you’ve never seen a marble that requires a video to identify it. Then you proceed to give an answer to a marble you haven’t even been able to view. And by the way. You keep making statements that would suggest you think that there are multiple marbles illustrated in this post. There isn’t. It’s just one marble with two videos show two different angles. I see all the time from the pros that multiple photos showing multiple angles is the best way to identify and that a single photo is hardly enough to identify by. So what do I do, I set things up, I purchase a rotary device so that I could capture quick little snippets videos so it’s just like you had the marble in hand. And then I’m told that I’m being disrespectful whenever I ask why you felt it necessary to leave your little comment that was at best shallow. Oh and to top it off your gonna try and turn things around and gas light me with the whole “sorry if I offended you” crap. You’re so clueless you still think the post is about multiple marbles when it’s only about one marble. So at the very least be sure to inform me. Is less photos better for identifying or is more photos? Does a video clip give to much information making it hard to identify? That’s your goal right, to help?

I am

sincerely sorry

This works for me StevenJustSteven.
I have done this stuff on a PC for many years now and it can handle anything that you throw at me for sure—I do like the videos that I come across from time to time—just include some stills to include all is a good idea.
Let’s not get too bothered about this post, something’s were misread or miswritten--that is the way with the written word. 
I always write on my Word program and edit because of this. I still may piss someone off but I do my best to edit for the masses. 
Write-edit-copy- paste—my world.
Let’s lay down by our dish and call @cheese in because I think that this one is a Heaton machine made marble and I really suck @WVS ID.
Marble—On!!

Sorry but it looks like I have to download that to my PC to view it. Not doing that.

Yep, safety for sure. Bugs are aplenty and even the best of us can have em' right under our noses and not know it. I mean, videos are cool, but only in certain scenarios, and this isn't one IMO. It's far easier to ID from multiple pics (in most cases), than too download videos. We have to remember, it's usually the eyes of a few that are attempting to assist the needs of the many, which makes time of the essence. Time and patience together I might add. Especially if additional pics are requested. And if that’s the case, it could end up being well worth the wait for that positive ID.

It's all fun, it's all good.

Be cool 👍😎
