    This marble was my grandparents from Ohio. I do not know the history of it or where it came from. From what I can tell it is German, onionskin from the 1800's? It is 1 1/2" in size. Curious to know what type of marble it is?

      Hi, Welcome to CW. Here's a CW article about marbles.
      http://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/182029-antique-marbles?in=activity
      And this one is causing marble collectors to become quite competitive -

      Don't know if we have any marble experts here, but I hope someone can give you more information. I think it's quite a lovely thing.
