Fostoria Ruby Red Coin Glass Oval Scalloped Rim Bowl. It has such a lovely scalloped rim and beautiful sectioned Paneled pattern with Frosted Coins on all four corners. One coin is the Liberty Bell and the other is a colonial head with 1887. This is in such a lovely shape with the added differing pattern bottom and is 3 1/4 inches high, 9 inches long and 5 1/4 inches wide. No Chips No Cracks. Great for so many uses and lovely display when not in use. Please note, The Date 1887, was chosen to commemorate the founding of the Fostoria Glass Company in Fostoria, Ohio. This line color, red, came out in 1967, despite clear coin glass was introduced in 1958, later adding green, later adding blue then this beautiful red. Further note: Fostoria made promotional items in their Coin Glass for the Boy Scouts, the U.S. Congress, and the Avon Company. Many pieces were produced for the Avon Company. The same coins were used on the Avon pieces, but the date was changed to 1886, the year Avon was founded. The wedding bowl the first piece made for the Avon Company in 1961, and was produced for their 75th anniversary. The wedding bowl was also produced again for the 91st anniversary in 1977. Fostoria did not produce the pieces with the 1886 date exciusively for Avon. Many pieces were sold by the Fostoria dealers, and were not originally Avon products. The raised coin center ashtrays were produced with the U.S. House of Representative Seal. Pieces were also produced with the Boy Scouts organizational emblem on them. Coin glass is becoming a very popular collectable in shows today. Lancaster Colony Glass Company, which bought out Fostoria Glass Company, is currently producing coin glass. Pieces in production do not have the frosted coin on them.
