I have a 1980 penny with Martin Luther King Jr.s head stamped on it next to Lincoln's head and I have a co-worker who collects coins who says it is not worth anymore than a penny because it was not stamped at the mint. It is stamped not rsised as part of the coin.

It appears there may be several names with the name Reuben concerning pottery. Is "Reuben" stamped on the pottery, and does it include any other names?

Yes, unlike the true Plains tribes further east, the Shoshone did produce pottery, up to about 1850. Their products included distinctive undecorated flat-bottomed pots that were wide at the top and middle but narrowed toward the foot. The clay was found locally, and decoration was rare; pots were generally of inferior quality.
Numbers stamped on figurines are usually identification numbers. Most manufactures of ceramics or pottery keep records of these numbers as a mean of identification and production. They may also identify the artisan responsible for the work in some instances.
Even before the historic tribes known to us began to make pottery, archaic native American cultures produced ceramic vessels. The Mogollon , Hohokam and Anasazi cultures of the south-western area of North America all produced very artistic and effective pottery which continued as a traditional skill among all the Pueblo tribes (Hopi, Zuni, Tewa and others). Today pueblo pottery continues to be made among the Taos, Picuri, Tesuque, Sandia, Jemez, Nambe, San Filipe, Isleta, Cochiti, Santa Clara, Santo Domingo, Acoma, Zia, San Juan, Santa Ana and San Ildefonso groups. Much of this pottery is still decorated with the traditional red, black and white pigments. The neighbouring Papago, Maricopa, Mohave and Navajo people also make pottery - probably influenced by the ancient pueblo traditions. Tribes of the lower Colorado river area such as Yuma and Mohave also produced pottery dolls as toys; in southern California the Mission tribes made buff-coloured pottery decorated with simple red designs. Historically, more simple and primitive pottery was also made by the Iroquois tribes, by the Huron, Delaware, the Erie, Fox, Assiniboine, Ojibwe, Mandan, Arikara, Shoshone, Pamunkey, Catawba, Cherokee, Creek, Apalachee, Seminole, Timucua, Quapaw, Shawnee, Missouri, Winnebago, Natchez, Choctaw, Caddo and Chickasaw. This pottery was generally not coloured but left in the natural browns and greys of the clay, often with scratched, stamped and incised decorations of dots and lines. Iroquois pottery was made in a very distinctive shape with a globular body and a prominent collared rim. See links below for images:

Apparently a C. Fiorentine did make at least one pottery goblet, or at least I own a goblet that is stamped on bottom with the word's Hand Made C. FIORENTINE ITALY. I would love any more information anyone had on this person or their work.
Check the bottom for marks or any signatures, if there aren't any markings of any kind, anywhere on any of the pieces means it's either very old and valuable, or very new and not so valuable.Go on line and start searching. Start with searching the word "pottery" and take it from there. You will hit a ton of dead ends but if you keep your search short, use the fewest key words that you can, the computer will give you more possibilities to choose from and finally you should be able to accurately identify the set. I hope you find a name or pottery makers mark stamped on the bottom, that will speed things up immensely.
Royal Doulton is a centuries-old British manufacturer of stoneware, china dishware and figurines. Royal Doulton stamped pieces with identifying marks and symbols that provide collectors with important information about origin, age and value. Royal Doulton, like other brands of pottery, china and porcelain, can be identified by a backstamp. Backstamps, also called basestamps, are the name, signature or other identifying mark usually found on the bottom of a piece. Royal Doulton is identified by a variety of documented backstamps, most of which include some combination of interlocking D's and the words "Doulton" or "Royal Doulton."
I would like to get my passport stamped, please. The little skunk stamped his feet, so I ran!
Stamped is the correct spelling.
