26 oz Goldfields Salad Oil - 1/26/2004 10:11:00 PM    oz-riley   Posts: 135 Joined: 11/24/2002 From: Melbourne, Australia. Status: offline Dug a good bottle last Thursday after a trip into a creek we have been working for while. A nice 26 oz 10 panelled Goldfields Salad Oil, would date 1850's, 1860's somewhere around there. This is the best early bottle we have found in this spot however we have dug a heap of broken Goldfields bottles.

I need to start digging creeks if they all come out looking like that! All of mine are 3 feet under with a lot of iron, leaded tin cans , and the like. They are all so sick you can't even read the embossment sometimes. Had to jump off and buy a tumbler from the Jar Doctor. Just pulled my first two off the machine and MAN what a difference!! Looks like they just came off the shelf 130 years ago. A good investment.... just be a long time paying for itself. LOL! Good hunting, Kelley (in reply to oz-riley) Post #: 3

Gunsmoke47, most bottles do come out of creeks mint, one of the good things I like about digging them. < Message edited by IRISH -- 1/27/2004 4:56:26 AM > (in reply to oz-riley) Post #: 4
