got this last week online. we dig primarily in the coal regions and
very very rarely do we dig inks. My guess is that digging a lot of
miners homes in coal country, a large percentage of the people
couldn't read or write..... we've dug a few pontiled Hover Inks, but
that's about it ( out of hundreds and hundreds of pits ).

This example appears quite green in my pics, but is actually an
olive amber. It's about mint with some nice base wear. I bought
it from a dealer in Hawaii on a Wednesday night and it was delivered to my
door on Saturday. Don't usually buy this type, but it was a color I didn't have.

That's a pretty one! We dig lots of inks here in Texas in privies, but they are generally the standard amber or aqua cones or umbrellas (or British pottery inks).
