- Some various marbles I have laying around... a look at what marbles are collectible and what are not... certainly not all inclusive... and I am no expert! Look for Christiansen Flames, Akro Cork Screws, American Catseyes, Chinas, Beningtons, Bumble Bees, etc.
I forgot to mention Sulfides... they are large all clear marbles with a figure in the middle. Typically an animal. If they aren't re-pops they are worth a bunch!
Never imagined I'd be researching marbles, but I found your video interesting, informative, & entertaining! Thanks!
Great video. Very informative. Now I can go back through my collection & identify many of them thanks to you. Didn’t realize that many of these were so old or valuable.
I love this video! I too collect different kinds of marbles. You have good knowledge on marbles. It's amazing what some will cost.🙌💕
This was informative, thanks, learning a few distinctions on cats eye marbles. But the marbles you identified as “Benningtons” are simple unglazed clay marbles which are not worth much, you see them a lot in antique malls. Bennington marbles are glazed, so they are shiny, come mainly in blue and brown (blue ones look like little blueberries). Large Bennington shooters can be 1 1/2” to 2” even, and those shooters are worth $10. to $20. each or more. “Fancy Benningtons come in greens and multi-colors and pinkish ones especially rare and worth $50 plus depending on size.
But thanks, I enjoyed your video!
Hey, you are a great speaker, sir!!! Thank you for all the info. I recently found a huge fruitcake tin, FULL of some beautiful ones. If interested, please let me know thru my email tiffanystreasures.tj@gmail.com
I enjoyed your video! I pick up marbles here and there just because they look "cool", but you provided information in an uncomplicated way that made me (a total novice) take a closer look at the ones I have. Thank you!
Very educational in all the different types of marbles.
MARBLES!! I used to play marbles at championship when very young, lol. Thanks so much for the memories!
You do have a lot of marbles! Wow! Looking around at some of the marble videos to see if I might have anything of value. I have my dad and his brother's marbles, as well as my worthless 1960's ones. No mention I've noticed on metal ones...my dad says that the metal ones were the most coveted by the boys when they played their serious marble games.
New subscriber love the marble content and love to collect
thank you. I am a grandmother of three boys ages; four, four, and six. With that said, I pulled out of my attic all of my marbles that I had since a kid that I collected in the fifties as well as the ones that my grandfather and great-grandfather gave to me. Wow. Now I know what I have. Especially the LUtz, the Peltier, onion skins, etc. Who would have known that my some 3,000 marbles I have actually have more value than taking up attic space. ANd, all because, I wanted to teach my grandsons how to play marbles. NOw, the three of them are hooked on playing and want to start collecting.
hi love your video thanks. i have so so many marbles and i got into it last year and wish i had all the marbles i won from the boys in the 60's they hated playing marbles with me. lol
Very interesting, thanks for sharing!
I collected them as a kid used to be able to identify them. We traded and played so much fun
Thank you .. Exactly what I was wanting to know
Really good info!
Nice video. Thanks!
Thanks for the information. I bought a bag of marbles from a charity second hand store, most of them sort of look like the one you showed, that was suppose to look like a banana inside, but these ones look more like a glob of one color inside, and I'm trying to find out where they are from?They all are very clear with glob of color inside, some do look like a banana, or a thick slice a melon.
Cool😎 Marbles!!
West Virginia still has a marble factory. It's called Marble King. It's at 329 S 1st Ave, Paden City, WV 26159.
Great info. I have about 3 thousand marbles. Is there a website I can sell them on or get more info? Is there a group of collecting
The blue and yellow shooter is a Peltier Cubscout
I'm here for the marbles as a collector. I'd love to own a few hand mades. They still makes hand made believe it or not in England.

Thanks for the info, God bless
Thx for the introduction to marbles. Kind regards from Berlin.
I like your marble chat get some more demos very good info only the vintage nothing new
When I was about 8 to 10 yo I lived in alb. N.M. The new neighborhood I lived in had about 20 boys about the same age. We used to always play base, and shoot marbles together. When We first moved there there every boy had serval hundred marbles. I had maybe 200. Before long I had all the marbles even the ones the other boys bought. It got where they wouldn't play marbles with me. I solved that by giving them marbles back. Thats the only way they played with me. Later moving to Phx. I won the school marble tournament when In the 6th grade. I always stored the marbles in coffee cans and my dad complained about them being in the house. When we left Alb. to go to Phx. I gave away about 25 coffee cans full plus some cigar boxes full. Got to Phx. with maybe 100 marbles. The trouble was there wasn't much for marble players there. When I won the tournament at the school no one even knew I played marbles. I probably would of been a 99/1 shot if they gambled on that.
We recently came across two vintage boxes of marbles. One is a vintage package called Big Nickel Special and the other is called 60 Solid Color Marbles for Chinko, Checko and Marblo from Berry Pink, Inc New York City. How can I get the marbles appraised?
The marbles at 6:20 aren't Benningtons. Do they have a spot on them? Benningtons have a spot on them.
Thanks
great video! I love marbles. thanks for sharing.
Mike,I have thousands of marbles given to me,small,med,,large-glass and metal.Where can I get them appraised?
I know a marblehead
Thanks for the information!
Most helpful!
You are not such a bad "public speaker"
New at this hobby. this was very informative! thank you.
How do I find out about my marbles. Or how to clean them?
You have made a great video,
Q. what would you estimate the value of a Bumble Bee Clay Marble be worth?
Thanks
R.P.D.
This is 10 years ago. Can you make more videos
Very educational. Thanks
You didn't explain how to tell those worthless ones. Like you went on to valuable ones and cited 'multicolor' as valuable--well, those 'cat eye' ones were multicolor.
i know someone who has a large speckled marbles that weighs 98 grams i wonder the value of that
Those dont appear to be benningtons. I suggest getting them evaluated by a professional because some people take TH-cam videos as 100% valid.
Where do you list the jewelry? Trying to get away from the "Bay"!
@ 6.19 they are clays not bennington's.
I have about 50 old marbels I was wo during if you could help me out thanks.
I have a ton of old marbles including benningtons. bumblebees, and the blue and yellow one I think you called it a christian or something. I had no idea they were worth that kind of money. I guess you have to find a buyer.
It's way easier to find buyers online than it used to, but it did change the market in some regards, but the good news is both vintage machine and hand made are now valuable.. people would overlook machine made vintage just 30 years ago.
I asume this was a camera glitch but it looked like the marbles were dancing the whole time wich was verry weird
I have rather a large collection. Would like trading or selling rare and valuable
Hey mike, I subscribed to the channel. I am interested in buying your bumble bees (yellow, black stripe). Ill pay $2 each for the oldies. You can send them one at a time to establish trust if you like. Let me know...i love them. Light up a black light and you will find, that the Worthless marbs are not all worthless.
Some Bumble bees I will pay $3
pell-tee-aa is the correct pronunciation. good video for newbies
Your half right n half wrong ! The green sparkle is aventurine.
I'm the 69th comment 😎😎😎
Ex video buuut. You have zero benningtons in your lot here. Alleys
Hi. I believe that I have a lot of Bumblebee marbles and have been trying to find out where and how to sell them. Would you be interested in buying mine for 2 bucks a piece? My email is joanniereynolds584@gmail.com if you're interested. Thank you.

Covid changed people's lives but why not create more videos

People.that do not know what they're talking about should not make marble speculation videos...
