Haven't a clue on what this really is. Any help would be appreciated. Could it possibly be a contemporary or Asian handmade? Weird indent at top and what looks to be a shear mark 180* opposite it. 1" dia. Thanks for looking.

Educational Buyer Beware: Marble App being used for eBay valuations

gallery

13 Upvotes

Spotted these 2 this morning - both priced >£30 for a single marble 🤦

Apparently there is an app, called "Marble Collector — Identify Antique Marbles" (also a website), only available on Apple, so I wasn't able to test (but I remember similar being shared here previously, and folks had the same concerns around accuracy)

Super disappointing to see it being used in this way, especially as value depends so much on condition, which the app cannot accurately gauge.

Be careful out there - don't trust listings with images like this, and use the knowledge you learn in this sub to help you identify the real thing!!

Identification Request Cats eyes.

gallery

13 Upvotes

Hi.

I know you probably get hundreds of these requests.

but the identification of cats eyes is blowing my mind,and giving me head ache.😆.

Im a novice,so starting from the bottom.

Can someone help.

Are all these from one maker, (factory/era,?

Is ther an easy way to identify?.I have thousands of player size,so i thought i would start with shooters because my eyes are not what they was.

Bottom row varies in size from 22.5mm to 23.5mm

Middle two rows are various from 24mm to 25.5.

Top row are 25.9mm.25.3mm

All diffrent base and size of ribbons,some colour combos are unusual and unique haven't seen before.some have lots of bubbles going on.

Identification Request ID help on clear glass marble with red tongue

gallery

I lucked into a bunch of free marbles at a yard sale today - about 200 I would guess.

This marble is large - what I believe is call a shooter.

Anyone know if this is new production or vintage? The lot of marbles looked mixed to me, new and old.

Any idea who made this one?

Thanks.
