All companies made organe-ish and white swirls back in the day.Ā 
This one is a WVS imho, Ā just nothing to get too excited about because there were so many made like this over the years.
It is not a Vitro.
Marbleā€”On!!

Same with this or this one a bit different??

Ā 

Yes--the same.

I know--it looks like a slag--it is a swirl.

Keep it going and you will know the difference.

Slags are generally found in any lot of marbles because they for the most part do not carry much value--quadmillions were made.

If you have not found any slags yet--you will--and they are more than likely old.

Marble--On!!

Just because it looks like a nine but a dead swirl of a nine.

The ā€œNine Thingā€ may be a bit of a misnomer.
Many marbles, slags, swirls or even a patch or two will show up with a ā€œnineā€ involved.
No maker has the trademark on any ā€œnineā€ they just happen as a result of the marble machinery that is/was used to produce these cute little orbs.
Never buy a marble because of theā€nineā€ unless you are a collector of ā€œNinesā€ā€”many do--!!!
Study the classic ā€œninesā€ that are more often than not associated with ā€œslag type marblesā€ from a variety of old classic marble makers.
Marbleā€”On!!
