I found it! next to a generic aqua ink refill bottle.It seems to be real marble.Never made that connection before. It's a stone of some sort.I can picture a child playing with this in the late 1800's.just a guess considering the age of this homestead.just a grassy field now. I haven't gotten to dig in the 4 x 6' hole I assume was the outhouse,but plan to.Any hints? thanks.

Boy am I red faced[:eek:] I just posted a reply up above to your 'look what I found' regarding this marble[8D] From what I can see, you have a beauty here! Check out 'alans marbles, or marblemania.com, they have good pictures posted for identification purposes. Could you possibly get a clear pic of it with light behind it? Nice find, now go get some more[;)]
