Ok marble guys this is a serious post.When I first moved into my cuurrent home we remodled it before my wife and I and my oldest daughter ever moved in.This was in 1990.I was ripping the ceiling of the second floor and as I pulled down the horsehair plaster a dryed out bag of something heavy smacked me right on the coconut.It turned out to be a bag of I beleive old marbles.Here are some pictures with some of them looking like they have pontils.I know they are probably just common but I would really like to find out as much information as possible thank you.There are 106 marbles mostly glass but I beleive some clay also.

They look like oldies.. I recognize the blue and brown ceramic ones.. I think the "pontil" is where it sat in the kiln.. I bet they'd be delicious in a bowl of milk..
