Question:

Hi, I was hoping you could appraise these two 20 gallon crocks for me.

The 20 gallon butterfly is back stamped Red Wing Stoneware. It is in excellent condition except for a nearly invisible 6 inch crowsfoot in the back. The butterfly is over 11 inches wide!

The 20 gallon leaf crock is in virtually mint condition and is front stamped with the Minnesota split oval.

Thanks for your help

Andy

Answer:

Andy, your Red Wing 20 gallon butterfly with the tight hairline and back stamped has a value between $1500 & $1800.  Your 20 gallon double leaf that is in mint condition and front stamped with the Minnesota oval has a value right around $3000.   Al Kohlman
