I think these are imperials. First pic are 1", next 5/8" - got them at ToysRus.
I don't know what they are, but I got them at a glass shop (7/8")
and some 5/8" ones:
and some 15/16" Jabo (I think) slags:

They did whip out one or two that "almost but not quite" look oxblood-ish. OK, maybe not even close, but what the heck - straight ftom the murky depths

Thank you

Thanks Scott, I traded a benny with a eagle logo for it....LOL
Roger, the marbles you show in the “I don't know what they are, but I got them at a glass shop (7/8")” have me scratching my head too. When I come across them at fairs, crafts shows etc. , they are never in a maker’s box or net, always loose .
that1, I’ve noticed that “almost but not quite" look oxblood-ish. OK, maybe not even close” color red too.
