I found a broken porcelain marble on my limping walk to the post office. It is broken, but it is a lovely white with slightly raised blue spots. We have had some heavy recent rains, and I figured it was uncovered. Will post pics soon. Any marble collectors know what I am talking about? The town dates to about 1901.

Sounds like you found a "Bennington". They are crockery marbles(clay base with a fired glaze coating)

Most were made in Germany.
