Old town toys

[Bible]

Was a toy kind of day today. Dug two marbles from a trash pit and eyeballed another. Double checked the hole under the marble and got an iron man. Got a cool thimble, collar stud and my hthird mystery rock from the site, no idea what they were used for. Other marbles are all from the same site , also what i believe are tar marbles hand made from the kids.Enjoy HH

Years and years worth only ever found 3 in one day. Others i posted just to show because i was moving them, but i had to show how nice they all looked together.

Nice finds! The stones sort of look like soapstones. I can't tell very well from the picture though.

I can take better pictures later when i get home, but what would be the use of tiny soapstones? They are all the same size when staked on top of each other.

Hmm. I didn't notice how small they were. Maybe they are just worn down?
