Hi Cheese,

This is a weird marble. It looks like it’s hand chiseled from a rock? It’s crude and looks old. I have never seen one like this.

What do you think?

That's weird... many agate marbles were made and they were faceted but it takes a keen eye and usually magnification to see the facets. This is very crude, not like the usual. I would think someone was trying to make a marble at home maybe? Not sure about this one. Cool find!
