Pottery help.

Are these pieces of pottery old? Found them sitting on the ground today.

The last two look like clay planting pots as shown in this pic. I have also seen painted pots. Were they all found together?

 

[Garabaldi]

Scattered in the same area.

Probably pieces to planters. The broken edges are rounded so I'm guessing they have been broken for a decade or two. I've found similar pieces on my property that I know are not from us, I estimate these pieces are around forty to fifty years old.

I'm still trying to learn pottery but my guesses-

yellowware

stoneware

redware

terra cotta

Circa late 19thC to mid 20thC. The last one does appear to be a planter. The others may be too but they also could be household pottery.

• Here are my 5:
  • Earthenware 1860s-Turn of Century
  • Glazed Crock Pottery 1860s-Turn of Century
  • Terra Cotta ?
  • Terra Cotta Modern
  • Terra Cotta Modern
    

All are approximate since they are small pieces, and it's really hard to tell exactly from what they came. Terra Cotta has been around since dirt, so it's hard to say whether the first TC is old or new, but the last 2 TC's look modern.

G, what are all the coins? Is that one day's haul for you? WOW, nice finds! Breezie

 

[Garabaldi]

Can you put an age range on any of them?

Your last picture looks like a piece of ridge cap. Ludowici made roof tiles for 130 years. They used square brass nails years ago and copper nails today to hold the roof tiles in place.
