Alan Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 Machine made with a manufacturing defect. Look at the marble and not the surface defect. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marblemanvintagemarbles Posted May 1 Author Report Share Posted May 1 To me it kinda resembles a pontil where the little nipple points up on the pole. However that cold roll lead me to believe it's been machine rolled. I then thought maybe it's a transitional period type of marble. It keeps catching my eye and drawing my attention back to it everytime I see it within the group it's stored in. It also appears to have that signature hand twisted 9 pattern within the glass flow coming to pole where the cold roll is at. I've studied it intensely but maybe I'm looking too hard as ive been known and guilty of doing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marblemanvintagemarbles Posted May 1 Author Report Share Posted May 1 Lastly it's UVR and it seems to glow just like most the clear German Swirls. Not too intensely but nevertheless green. Also on the bottom pole it appears to have been smoothed out with just a little bit of the pontil mark still left behind. If it is a pontil in the 4th picture down 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Respectfully, you're doing ID based on the outside of the marble (and it's obvious defects) instead of looking at the interior. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
