I think it's the Peruvian Bush language...Rough translation: Men who go to bed with itchy ass wake up with smelly finger.

No, no, no. It's Chinese. It says: "Man with hole in pocket feel cocky all day."

Thanks for the effort guys, but I was really looking for some good info. I was thinking it was somthing oriental but I dont know. I was found down in florida I believe if hat helps any.

Seriously though, it looks either Chinese or Korean,and for some reason I think it's upside down. put "possibly Asian" in the title and that might get a quicker response.

 

[falcolnx]

thanks. pretty funny off the cuff i have to admit. I will try and figure out how to change the title

It is Chinese! It is upside down. It might be an imperial seal if a ring. It says" imperor Quan Long period made 1736." A very nice find indeed! Congrats! It is possable that it at one time belonged to the imperor. There are two ways of writing the imperors name, the common and the imperial. This one IS impeial.

How would I go about verifying and pricing this. I am skeptical of chinese artifacts found in florida.

Thanks. I will let you know what I find out once my dad gets a look and sees if its authentic

Also I found out its not a ring. Its a snuff bottle. or box i cant recall I just know he said snuff and something that started with B and that it has a porcelain inlay. I was alittle tired when he told me, i stayed up late and watched SpaceX attempt the launch of Dragon.

Updated pics chinese ring revealed to be a bottle

Dad showed new pics here they are. It is a bottle. Does the design support what is written on the bottom? My dad sure hopes its worth something

Thai or Cambodian? Acun. maybe real Indian? fantasy? Not Korean. Japanese or Chinese. Can you see SI on it? Maybe from Bermuda triangle 51 Area. What is in Matrix? Try a mirror.

Beautiful find) I don’t know what language it is, but I can advise you on an online resource that I use for translation if there are difficulties - https://www.translate.com/ . Here you can just take a photo of the text that needs to be translated and in a couple of seconds you will get the result . Plus, you do not need to choose a language, he will select languages ​​according to logic.

Man who farts in Church sits in his own pew !!!! Chinese proverb lol That is a cool looking piece I like it

 

[unclemac]

i think it is a fairly recent "snuff bottle", looks to be resin, not expensive tourist piece. the markings are irrelevant.

Roughly translated...

Roughly translated it says, "Made in China"

Wow, you guys are good! I am trying to figure out what this says. I have shown it to a couple of people I know that were born in China, they say it is likely Chinese, but old Chinese script. I think it is either a number, a ownership seal, or something of that nature. Any help would be appreciated!
