I've picked up a couple of handfuls of marbles while digging over the years (I'll post 'em another time) and figure I've got a decent eye for older ones. Well, I couldn't resist picking up a couple of jars at the thrift shop; I thought I saw a few nice ones and the price was right.
So here they are. My problem is I still can't identify 'em. So any help in terms of types and/or value is appreciated.
(I've got an idea of what some of 'em might be - time to test myself :read2:)

look like either mexican or asian marbles to me....they are modern so not worth much....theyre pretty tho...
 

looks like it to me...some of the mexican are gettin attention...some are striking....but its hard to really be posivite with a picture...post the ones you question and ill try to tell you....
 

Uhm...after looking a little closer at the stuff being produced now, I'm seeing it a little better.
Seems you're right as usual.
There are maybe two that I'll get better pics of the white with blue orange stripes in the first row and the yellow speckled white in the tenth.
I had been thinking maybe the blue clear with white swirls could be Alox, but they could easily be Neptunes or Blue Jays.
It really is an art to recognize these things isn't it?
Thanks again duffy
 

sure thing ender...ive been doin it for 20+years and we still get skunked now and then.....its great fun tho lookin thru a tub of 10,000 marbles
