Hey all! I’m new here! I’m a lover of antiques, a picker and a diver lol. My dad and I scavenge old dumps and landfills, someone threw these away and I don’t know enough about marbles-YET. To determine whether or not these are worth anything. So here I am, nice to meet you all and Thank you in advance!

Thank you! From what I have researched I was thinking I may have a mixture. You think they’re old? I was thinking I saw Pontils on some. Can you point me to a website or something that has info on grading or how to assess value, I have searched but haven’t found anything that’s what I’m really looking for.  I’ve looked for authentication people beat me but not finding any. I want to sell them but wasn’t sure what to list for. I thought about trying to make them look better but I didn’t know if that would take from the value or what. I have been reading articles on this site, lots of good info. Do you think I should clean them up or ?

Image #9 at eight o-clock, the inside one--This one should show pontils.

The rest are a nice mix of older "Machine Made" marbles which will not show pontils.

I see one Akro Corkscrew that I have not seen before--luve it!

Image #17.
