    Default Help! Can anyone identify these stones?..

    Hello all!

    I went to a farm auction today and bought a box of stuff. These were in the box! Can anyone help me identify the stones??

    The one with the label is blue, one without is grey, the short one is green and the other 2 are labeled.

    Hope you didn't have to pay much for them!
    If you want to send me that junk axe-grinding stone with the label stuck to it, I could pay your postage and $5 to at least help you recoup SOME of your loss......

    Yes, I can help identify them. They are the infamous "farmhouse fakes" . Interpol has been looking for these babies for several decades now. Fortunately, I have intimate links with Interpol, so if you send them to me I'll make sure they end up in the right hands, "no questions asked"...

    And this is not the first time either, if I recall correctly.
