Is this a Peltier?

My first inclination is that it is not Peltier but that might change with other views. When you post a marble for ID, try to show the ends of any ribbons or stripes you can see. On many marbles, the ends will be found at "seams", the look of which, can be very important for identification.

I don't see any seams like I see on other ones.

It appears to be some sort of West Virginia Swirl, which is a sort of "catch-all" category for machine-made random swirls produced by a number of companies located in WV. This one might be a Heaton, or maybe an Alley.

Okay, thank you! I'm slowing starting to see the differences in these

That's how it happens. The majority of Peltiers you see will have two seams with 2-3 ribbons running between them on each half of the marble (4-6 ribbons total).
