Hi everyone I'm Colin, from the UK, and am a very keen collector of old, old glassware and Victorian coloured potlids called Prattware (I have over 300). I also have a fascination with old coins, especially old English, which is shared by my 10yr old son. I've been lucky enough to dig and well dive on 16th century castle sites, dig 1800's rubbish dumps and dive some old wrecks in various places.
My wife says that I'd collect anything and everything if I could and to be fair I've also collected Murano glass fish, snuff boxes, codd bottles, Roman Items, marbles and some other things in the 15 years we've been married so I suppose she has a point.
I try to be as knowledgeable as I can about the things I collect but on occasion can be stumped which is where forums like this are so valuable.
 

Welcome to the forum sbowloc, you'll find people with same interests here. We have a marble and bottle categorie on the forum. Also some pretty good divers, their posts are always interesting.
 

Welcome and don't be shy posting pics of some of your finds.
