Howdy folks! Went out for about 2 hours today at my homesite at an apple orchard and here's what I've got... the thing I'm not sure about is the marble, it looks more like something from the 1960s than early 1800s. The colorful things all around it feel like sprinkles you see on top of a cupcake and they seem to have just been rolled onto the glass if you know what I mean. I also found a Tombac button as well as two brass ones. Thanks! HH.

Try posting the marble under the Artifact Forum/Marbles, there’s a couple guys that are excellent at marble id’s.

I’m always forgetting about the other forums and the only thing I know about marbles is that they’re round :)

Yup. Same here. I'm a regular on What is it, Today's finds, and a few of the forums related to rocks and maps but that's about it. I kinda just forget the other ones exist.
