The 'banana' cats eyes are pretty..

So too the old clay/ceramic marbles. And I see others that I'd grab if I saw them laying on the ground. I'd sure love to aim a blacklight flashlight at those and see what lights up. I think the green clearies are what's called uranium glass.
 

pic 1 foreign cateyes and common marble king with maybe a few champion.. pic2 same pic 3 at 9 oclock could be an akro cork or marble king cubscout...the blue and yellow one..need better pics...at 5 oclock the green marble on top of the big clearie might be a transitional need better pics of that one,too.pic 5 at 11 oclock the yellow marble with the blue and grren stripes looks to be a german handmade with lutz [goldstone]need better pics..just below 3 oclock the china marble looks good ...maybe crows feet or other design ...need better pics.... pic 6 nice group of limestone ,clays and bennington..minimal value --condition....thanks for showin em...
 

Duffy, These are about the best pics I can get. Hope I got the right ones. The last marble I could not re-locate that one!!! Let me know if you need different pics, and I'll see what I can do. :thumbsup:

Third from the left? Kidding, respect anyone that knows about marbles. I do know that I've yet to dig anything real good. I think.
 

Well, I will tell you that alot of the earlier ones came out of bottle pits, when I was digging bottles in Fla. :thumbsup:
 

Thanks Allen, for the compliment on the marbles :thumbsup: And also to Wheelerite & Duffytrash, I appreciate the help with the id's :thumbsup: I apologize for the late pic, and I also hope I posted the right one: pic 2, 3 oclock, silver oxblood. chris
