Coke Straight Sides and others... - 1/19/2012 1:26:03 PM    ironmountain   Posts: 844 Joined: 10/17/2010 From: Iron Mountain, MI Status: offline Just to put it out there. A guy on the metal detecting forum I go to, Has a huge farm with old ditches, privy sites, dumps, places where a church and a school have been. He gave me permission to go stay at his house as long as needed to dig, but I live 6hrs away. Anyway... He posted some of the bottles he's found just lying on the ground along the ditch. Most of them were Coke Straight Sides, some meds and other stuff... I told him I'd help liquidate them for him. So he's going to give me a list and I'll pass it on to you guys and see if you want to help him deplete what he finds. Just doing it to help a guy out and to not let potentially really good bottles go to waste. He could really care less about digging. He said he'd just grab whatever he finds in the ditchline and if he's near something when he digs for MD'ing... Post #: 1
