What does AGGIE mean in Scrabble?
noun
informal
A playing marble, especially a prized one made of agate or of glass resembling agate.
Children traditionally used an aggie as a favorite shooter in games of marbles because its agate-like material made it harder and more valuable than ordinary glass marbles. The name shortens agate, the mineral that early marbles of this kind were often cut from. Losing a prized aggie in a game was treated as a real loss among players who collected them.
