Marbles I found on my antique landfill
Even small, ceramic marbles are worth a pretty penny! Larger ones, even more. $5-$50 I've seen. Nice going, great finds!!! Don't lose your "marbles'!! Ha, ha!!- historic-antiques

I wonder if, like error coins, these error bottles are worth more than regular, mold-corrected bottles? That would be a whole new field in bottle collecting. Then you'd have to have ways to confirm if they're really errors or molded that way to "be different" or as a marketing gimmick, etc.- historic-antiques

ID on a clay/ceramic marble
I've heard of "Bennington marbles" too, and I have a blue ceramic one, similar in size to yours, with that same larger, darker spot on it. I found mine in a pre-1900 garbage dump. Last I saw, even the smaller ones are $10-$20/apiece. Larger ones, like yours, $30-$50?- historic-antiques

THE RAREST WEST TENNESSEE HUTCH BOTTLE!?
"...I love the hunt, the prize when found, the local history behind them and the beauty of the bottle craft." ..... .... looks like we're chips off the same block!! I feel the same way! I found my first antique bottles in 1970 in a huge municipal garbage dump, underneath the old River View...- historic-antiques

First crock lid, some nice little bottles, animal horns + more!
And it looks like people threw out cattle heads in their local dumps after butchering them...we'd never see that today...- historic-antiques

Cleanest Hutch I ever found, plus beer, milk and a surprise med bottle.
Great bottles!!! In what city did you find them? I know many companies sold their products nationwide in the same bottles, but in Chicago I found that Edelwiess, Atlas, and other bottles you pictured in Chicago. I guess the "Chicago" embossing gives us a clue, but just wanted to be sure...- historic-antiques

Got the shock of my life today digging this.
Good luck Leon, find a whole iron-pontiled bottle tomorrow!! I guess somebody hung on to that bottle for 50-60 years or so, then finally tossed it around 1900+. Or maybe somebody in a stagecoach or pioneer wagon tossed it 170 years ago. I'm throwing lots of garbage out right now, that's 50+...- historic-antiques
