The Nickel Guy Posted September 3, 2024 Report Share Posted September 3, 2024 This actually had me fooled until yesterday when I handled it along with many others. I noticed it felt light. Then I dropped it just a short 1 inch distance on the table and it bounced rapidly about 4 times with a funny sound. I thought it was a real marble but it was not. Just an odd thing for me, maybe others have seen such marbles many times before. I doubt it is collectible. ( Almost looks like a "9" doesn't it? ) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Nickel Guy Posted September 3, 2024 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2024 LOL Oh boy, I've struck gold! Thanks for the comments. Indeed, it is odd. All these years I thought it was glass. I guess as a novelty, it is worth having. It's not ugly anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digswithstick Posted September 4, 2024 Report Share Posted September 4, 2024 52 plastic ones ,some swirls,some clearies. Lucky Joe peanut butter jar in background. Keeps them from getting mixed with the glass ones again 😉. Bought these many years ago in a cloudy quart jar. Didn't know they were plastic mixed in with twice as many glass ones. Best part was a old mint Marble King Watermelon in the jar,one of my favorite finds. Haven't seen any others until yours, must be more somewhere 🤔. 🙂 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digswithstick Posted September 4, 2024 Report Share Posted September 4, 2024 Watermelon, that was hiding in the jar . Could see part of it in there, wasn't sure until I got to car and untaped the lid and dumped them in a bag. Lucky day ,won the marble Lotto 🙂 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
