Over the years I have dug some marbles and always saved them. I had no idea that they have different names and that some are valuable. Recently while cleaning the attic in an old house I purchased last July, I came across some toys from the 50's / 60's.
Among those toys were 2 bags of marbles. I sorted
them out and took a few pictures. I grouped a few similar colored ones together. Can you guys identify these marbles and tell me if any are rare?
I have about 100 more but I dont want to overwhelm you guys. If we can identify these, then I will post more.

The clear ones with colored vanes are Marble King cateyes. Very common and nearly no value because of that. The red and white ones are Marble Kings also but not cateyes. Those particular ones are also very common and have little value but some marble king marbles can bring hundreds of dollars for just one. All it takes is a little different color or the right color combo and things change. The vast majority of marbles have little value but find enough of them and you'll eventually wind up with a good one.
