All vintage or current, machine made glass marbles have two cutmarks Wolf.

Some are more evident than others.

Just think about the process, the marble is a chunk of molten glass that is dropped, taken or formed into a device that makes it round.

It is a blob from the previous cut--then it is cut again to drop into a device to make it round--simple simon.

There are plenty of youtube vids showing marbles being made---check it out!

Marble--On!!

have your friend contact me…

Saw him Friday. He's a young dude that works at a discount grocery store. He can't afford anything. I think I'll show him your purple collection next time I see him at least. Thanks schmooz...
