The Picker’s Guide to Basic Marble Identification

So you’ve come across a jar, bag, or box of random marbles. It was at a fleamarket, a yardsale, an estate, a storage locker, or a customer wants to sell you a ‘treasure’. Or you’ve noticed lately that marbles are being bought up and asked after more than ever before. Maybe you’ve used Lens or AI on a few and gotten very confused about all the different responses. Perhaps you’ve looked into it a little closer and gotten totally overwhelmed with all the info. If as a reseller you feel you need to know a little something more to set your pricing or keep an eye out for potential collectibles but devoting the time and study to a whole new field is more investment than you have on hand then this guide is for you.
