Can someone tell me about these? P.S. Pictures 3&4 are the same one, just held to light to show color. All of these buried in my yard. Totally vintage antique.

Hit them with some UV and see if they light up..

The orange and white look like vitros and the swirls appear to be hybrid cats eyes. Back when companies made these they all stoled each others glass workers and techniques. They would sue each other and sometimes one company would load up and drive over to the other company with sticks in hand. With that it can be very difficult to determine which company made which marble.
It’s taken me more time than I care to mention to somewhat know a thing or two. Stephen Bahr has a YouTube channel and there’s a forum called all about marbles. Those I believe are the top two references I prefer.
Good Luck!
It’s easy to fall in love with them once you start looking at all the glass work.
