Just found you. I just pre sorted about twenty gallons of marbles that I picked out of the rubble of my burned down house after it thawed from winter and before the bulldozers came. I found every last one. I don’t know anything about what I have. But I did just ID a bag of potential dichro vortex and three Christiansen zebras I’m guessing. I took a black light to the buckets and was blown away how many glow green or orange. One entire bowl of pink and blue marbles all glow. Hundreds of them. I’m so excited to work out what i have!!!
Wow Angela ! So sorry about your house ! But at least we know that most marbles will survive something like that. I hope you enjoy identifying them, there’s so many different types!
Those Germans are crazy awesome Ive got a cuple dozen most of mine are under a half inch . Few 1.5 in an one 3in latt.core swirl thats in wet mint . This was such a great episode Stephen. Thanks for sharing looking forward to part 2
I owned every Steelie marble in grade school, because they had to hit my beautiful, brown Agate Boulder 5 times to win it for keepers, as my Boulder rolls over and crushed what was their cats eye yellow colored, chipped, glass marble I just won into the soft grass in a game of free style open field no boundies gsme.,. Or did I loose that game?.... I have quite a collection and find them everywhere. And I never lost my Marble...???? I will always remember you brought back some old memories.....
@@stephenbahrmarbles My oldest has the collection. He found a large cache in a jar under a old dwelling he helped recycle... Agates old glass and beautiful old fired clay....I was afraid of one of the marbles slipping out of that guy's fingers on your video, only to crack one of your prize examples.. Great job, thanks again
I hope your oldest has them held proudly on display. That was my bad ! the Christensen Blue Ray slipped out of my hand . Not good! I should have edited that out
@@stephenbahrmarbles side by side with his 1st edition Holo poke'mon untouched mint complete set he collected as a kid We find, rescue and save treasures. I metal detect and currently own 9 from Garrett to Whites and a Minelab or two to name a few. Two of which I built for myself, one when I was 9 and then one at 39...I have never found nothing metal detecting, but I have found more marbles that way... Not by a signal, but by eyesight.... Just digging for relecs and out rolls a piece from the past... fun in the sun ask anyone.
Stephen..I was the collector who did some searching and found the experimental Spiderman sulfide ceramic pieces from a former worker used in the Vitro Anacortes trials. Allowed another collector to buy from me half of the plain figures. I had 21 pieces made into same size as Vitro Anacortes used in experiments , gave two marbles away but still have remaining examples. They tried other designs which I have in my collection.
Donald awesome info ! Thank you for your research , I appreciate it : hopefully it was explained fairly accurately. Give me your address so I can film your collection! 🟢
Beautiful marbles! Sometimes I find them at old house sites when metal detecting! I've found a few I could use help identifying sometime! Thanks for the awesome videos, just subscribed! Chad- #bluecreekdetectors
@@stephenbahrmarbles I know and Oh I harvested a ton of honey today and got a few a stings and puffy area on my ankle from two of the stings but its worth it
😊 I'm smiling but the old german made me cry I just had 2 stolen from me in NY they are probably getting sold at the Stormville flea market my grandmother gave them to me and I'm heartbroken 💔
I almost had a heart attack myself looking at those German ones lol I don't think I wanna know how much money he spent on those CACs and Pelts, whew...😅 Excellent video Stephen!😁
Thanks Elias ! Dave’s been collecting high-end for decades and it was a pleasure to see some of his finest. I hope to film his entire collection at some point soon but I’ll need a doctor’s note 😂
Thanks Cody ! I’ll get to that for my own collection at some point.We’re doing another one just like this, uploading very soon . Thanks for your input!
I live in sw Michigan. I have alot of MF Christianson marbles. Sleeping devils included. Diaper fold. Does anyone recommend a buyer near me ... Id like to sell my collection. Thought maybe you might kno someone
I suggest having them identified by seasoned collectors first, since MF Christensen marbles go for quite a bit of money usually. You can check out All About Marbles for example. Lots of experienced collectors on there.
At one point in time marbles were played with and extremely popular for kids. I don’t think those heydays will ever happen like that again. They like do to race them now, otherwise they have just become very popular collectables.

@@stephenbahrmarbles Do they make newer ones that glow? Or is it an indication of age?
Both older ones and newer ones will glow but it’s more common from the older companies, before a lot of the E.P.A. standards went into action.
Just a great video, well done good sir. 👍
Thanks Cameron ! 🔴

Hi Shondra , I’ll ask David Tamulevich, he lives in your area.
Cool thanks mate
I just hope nobody gets an idea of making NFT marbles, that's nuts!
🤷♂️
I'd buy some FJB marbles 💯
NFT marbles are amazing!
Would kids actually play with these or are these made for adults only?
More works of art than school yard toys
At one point in time marbles were played with and extremely popular for kids. I don’t think those heydays will ever happen like that again. They like do to race them now, otherwise they have just become very popular collectables.
