NO RESERVE MINT! Yes there are 6 ribbons around the small marble and 4 ribbons around the larger marble. The small marble has 2 pontils and the larger marble has one rough pontil and the other pontil is a smooth pole- maybe a cup pontil or first off cane. I am not sure what that means as to that marble only having one obvious pontil and the other side does not. This product is a set of two antique handmade German marbles, measuring .67" and .81". They are of the Latticinio brand and were crafted in Germany. These marbles are a unique addition to any collection, showcasing traditional German craftsmanship and attention to detail.
