When in the 60's and I was a kid, I could buy cat eyes at the dimestore. This reminds me of them but I am not certain that this is a true cat eye. I also remember as a kid that people would heat up their clear glass marbles in an old coffee can on the cooking stove, then drop them in water to crystallize them. It didn't always work and it would sometimes just shatter the marble.

yes indeed. And in the fifties shooting marbles and winning some was part of this young boys life. :)
Nice to see that !
I have some memories about marbles
I used to play marbles too..your marble certainly looks like what I would call a cats eye:)
