Mickey Mouse Molded Game Marble

The item appears to be a spherical game piece, likely a plastic or resin marble, distinguished by its vibrant reddish-orange hue. It possesses a smooth, polished surface with a moderate sheen, though reflections on the surface suggest it isn't perfectly glassy. The most notable feature is the molded, raised design on its surface, which depicts a stylized mouse head, easily recognizable by its rounded ears and facial features. There appear to be multiple such mouse motifs repeated around the sphere, possibly four or more, given the visible portion. Each motif is subtly raised from the surface, indicating a molded or embossed manufacturing process rather than painted or engraved. The overall condition appears good, with no obvious chips, cracks, or significant abrasions visible from the provided image. There might be minor surface scratches consistent with use, but nothing that detracts significantly from its integrity or design visibility. The material seems durable and lightweight, characteristic of vintage plastic game pieces. Given it was found within a 'vintage marble lot', it likely dates from the mid-20th century onwards, possibly 1950s-1980s, a period when novelty marbles and game pieces were common. There are no discernible maker's marks or signatures visible from the image, which is common for such small, mass-produced items.
