Primary Interest:
All Treasure Hunting
The larger of these 2 was found about 25 years ago.

We lived in an apartment building that had another apartment building next to it. Our building used to be some sort of general store at one time wayyy back in the day.

It was actually during that time I became interested in treasure hunting. My brothers and I would dig forts in the back yard of this place and come across tons of old stuff. Coins, bottles, toys.

Anyways this was "lost" until I found it last week again in an old ceramic jug of my ma's.

It has a crude looking figure 8 painted on it and is ceramic I think with glaze.

The other is one my 2 year old niece found while walking with her dad down a gravel alley. I have pulled several out of the floor in the house we live in now...really weird looking ones with funky glaze, If I can locate them I will post them for sure.

yes!!! thats a marble from american toy in akron...maybe 1880s...before the glass marble machines were invented the clay marbles were the boss...depending on the size those can prove to be quite valuable...they rolled em around in a glaze before they were fired so actually theyre like snowflakes...not 2 alike....google akron marbles...my friend brian graham has a mesuem dedicated to akron marbles....
