Stay off the coffee my freind😁.

We need some nice clear images here.

Lay them out in a way that we can seen them all.

Even better yet--pick out four or five that you think are cool and lets start over.

Nice crisp images--well cropped and ready to sell.

We all can wait for your best images and look forward to them.

Marble--On!!

Looks like you have some good ones. The black/red and white one in the last set of pics looks interesting. You might want to get a UV flashlight for fun. Some marbles glow like Lightening Bugs when you hit them with UV. You red and white one looks like an Alley Flame 🔥

Thank you! Yes need to chill on the coffee lol, I took some better pictures, picked about 16 out, that I cleaned up. Lets see how good the pictures are. My iphone is kinda tricky on the colors.

Here is 1 of my favorites so far, let me know how these pictures are. Thanks for all the replies everyone! 

I've got about 14lbs I'd say, need to do a count this weekend when I'm off work.

Vacor, Machine made IMO. Just looks Kinda like a pontil. If it is a pontil there should be one on the opposite side also.

Alrighty ty, let me try to get a few more "better pics", this 1 is hard to get it's so dark.

I'm just learning about marbles since picking these up Tuesday.
