Garage sale find. I know nothing about marbles. They were scattered in bottom of crate with letters from WW2 to parents. 20190905_145434.jpg

Wow, nice haul! I see stuff from the late 1800s up to maybe the early 40s. Those are the golden ages for old marbles, the money marbles. They look like they might have been in an aquarium or something and got frosted looking or they are dirty. The frosted surface is not good for value. I see a Peltier NLR bee, some MCRs, slags, German handmade, etc...

Are you interested in learning about them and collecting, or buy to resell?

Not my area so will be posting WTS/WTT.
Should I just leave they as is or clean them?

You better keep them, or the rumor will go around that you've...lost......your.........marbles.
