Thought I would share one of my stamp albums. Would be interested to hear what people think or if there was anything that is particular rare. I don’t think there is but it’s not exceptionally laid out but better then average in my opinion.

Always amazed that there are countries I have never heard of.(not in pictures but in album)

One of my coins from my collection. 1935 UK florin. Would appreciate advice on the copper coating was it production error or latterly added. The edges potentially show white metal underneath. Interesting to hear people’s opinion.

so thought I would follow up 1) to say thanks to those that helped identifier some marbles before 2) to give clearer picture of what I found.

Grouped them mainly into clear and non clear

This post is going through clear. Caveat I don’t know the names so if they have names happy for you to share

Red marbles fluoresce brightly under UV

Some white and orange swirl marbles

A complete black marble that has murky yellow swirls under UV

The Jacob’s coat that a kind poster helped previously identify. Looks like the swirl has inner and outer

the remaining ones that i did not know how to group!

I have another post on non see through marbles

so thought I would follow up 1) to say thanks to those that helped identifier some marbles before 2) to give clearer picture of what I found.

Grouped them mainly into clear and non clear

For non clear some fluoresced green under UV

Two solid yellow and greens colour fluoresced quite a lot

There was some that where dark blue with white stripes

There was some that looked brown that had yellow stripe

I will add the see through ones in separate post.

If any of these have specific names happy for you to share!

So bought a painting recently because it looked nice. Sold as an oil on wood in wooden frame. Started looking at the frame and was worried about wood worm. So took the backing off and inside it was metal/copped. I felt so lucky as I was worried about wood worm. Now on the back in cursive handwritting is inscription. Would like to know what it says…Was going to clean the back but it looks like the writing is on a thin film as parts to the left have deteriorated.

any help would be appreciated

as promised , here are the marbles on a tray. Anything worth investigating further?

My limited knowledge they look all common 20th century marbles

Bought this at a thrift store a couple of years back

it looks hand painted and relatively neat painting.

I thought it was a Chinese family verte koi brush holder from 1850s

would like opinion from more knowledgable of this is correct or if it is a later copy.

would be good if later to know how or what too look for to get better at finding treasure

Green Jadeite/stone rabbit or hare with flat long ears.

bought at thrift store a few years ago

i thought it could be Chinese from 1900s

however there are a lot of recent replicas etc

interested to know what the community thinks about stone, age and country of origin.

Thought this was Dutch tobacco jar from 18th century. However would be keen to get others opinion here and wood type. The handle appears relative long for lid which makes me think you needed some sort of grip for purpose or to shut.

Bought this recently and believe it to be cherry bakelite but would be good to get this forums views on that and age and maker if known. It weighs 55g.

had these marbles since I was young. Don’t know anything about marbles. saw a couple of posts on here and thought I would ask the community. Assume they are all common unless anyone shouts that there are any valuable or rare ones.
