jeeperman Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 I have added a couple Burnt sparklers to the group aside the one I had and took a new photo. Looking at the image I realized how diverse my Sparkler collection is becoming. Thought I would share. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aleecee Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 I have never heard the term "burnt sparkler before. Do they have a specific definition, or are they the ones pictured above that have a lot of brown? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeeperman Posted February 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 Thanks guys. Aleece, the three burnt sparklers are the middle three in the center of the first row. They were dug from the Akro site in the early to mid 2000's and found about 10ft down. The one to the right is a little different from the others and I believe not nearly as many were found. It has a base like a silver oxblood where the others or a transparent opal base. They were all found in the same hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbobam Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 The silvery base is a stand-out, but with this group I don't think I'd ever be able to pick a favorite! ( : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lstmmrbls Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 And the silver base is not a dug marble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
