Nice find! I've always liked to believe that finding any marble brings good luck, and to find a clay marble brings a hundred times the luck. It's certainly an antique clay marble; way to go!

I am not as old as the 1800's...I am a through back from the seventies, but not the 1800's...Would have liked to live back then..It would have been way cool...Buster...

That's pretty cool, Indy, but just don't lose it! If you do, you'll have...lost your marbles. HAHAHAHAHA That's my cheezy grin.
