Here are some marbles I found. I wonder if it is worth it to go pick up the last bag for 3.00.It probably has 5 or 6 similar to the green ones.

What do you think.old or not? The black ones with 2 or 3 patches on them are not actually black..but green or blue. I tried to capture that in the second pic.
Wow..there is a lot to marbles, grading, trying to figure out if it has pointil..lol. Duffy..what do you think?

Looks like you have maybe a few older ones, most look like 70's or 80's a few good shooters. Look out for nicks and dings, that's a bad thing. I don't know much about marbles but that is what I do know.

Hope this helps. :icon_scratch:

Keep @ it and HH !!
 

Duffytrash will be along soon enough. He'll let you know what you got.
 

Looks like mostly newer imported stuff. I think I might see a green pelt banana and a vitro or two, a marble king or two, and possibly a master, but nothing older than the '70s or so except the pelt banana cateye. Nice little group of marbles, but nothing of value that I see. They won't have pontils, all machine made unless that one odd looking one is stone or clay. I can't tell if it's a corroded lead musketball or a ball bearing, or what. I know what you mean about there being a lot to marbles... it can be overwhelming. So many makers and different styles.

Nice buys (regardless of their value) desertmoons. Thanks for sharing...
 

yup..modern asian imports..,.one thing about em...theyre cheap and look good on the shelf!!!!
 

Welp, thank you all. They are pretty anyway. The corroded one is magnetic. The green ones. just love that mossy agatey color. I hardly ever see any marbles out and about so was almost as excited as if I had found a fan. lol
