Just wondering if there are any knowledgeable marble collectors here. :dontknow: I bought this collection on Thursday from an elderly gentleman here in Ontario. I'm curious if there's anything of age or value here. I've found similar examples in farm fields where early homesites were located, but I have no idea if these marbles have any age to them or not. The last pic is the bag of 'leftover marbles' that I feel are not old.

Any and all thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Dave

Nice haul. I don't know much about marbles either. Can you get access to a uv light? Looks like you might have some uranium and magnesium marbles.
