RE: My recent digs - 7/3/2008 8:57:24 PM    glass man Posts: 1009 Joined: 1/30/2008 From: GEORGIA Status: offline   I once had a origina 5 centa,which is a little larger. I was told by a lady that ran a store and said the 3 centa cost a penny to make ,sold to store owners for 2 cents and store owners for of course 3 cents. I know a large dump from the 30s and 40s that is loaded with 3 centas and acl bottles ,but is a very bad part of town. Maybe if  DENNIS AND DAVID aren't to mad at me for reasons they know,we can dig there in cooler wheather,if my health gets better. If they are willing to risk the dangers. THERE are also a lot of the zeppilin bottles and some 1923 cokes ,but mostly pat. no. cokes. thrash best of my memory is not deep ,but a lot of burning was done.      ALSO SOME DECO BOTTLES SHOULD BE FOUND. < Message edited by glass man -- 7/3/2008 9:02:24 PM > _____________________________ Stand there's a midget standing tall and a giant beside him about to fall.

RE: My recent digs - 7/4/2008 12:06:28 PM    lexdigger   Posts: 913 Joined: 5/31/2005 From: Lexington, Ky. Status: offline Your shard is a Chattanooga Brewing Co. Some of the crown tops date to the turn of the century. We dig them here with amber cokes. If it says CB & CM Co. really tiny on the back heel, then I'd say it's an older one. I've got one I can post a picture of if you want to see what it would have looked like whole.

It's looks like a sun with wings with the word Faultless inside of it? I'm not big on crown top beers, but this is one that I had to keep. Any that have weird logo's or pictures on them I will keep. I've got one from Indy that has a naked lady on it! Chris Attachment (1) (in reply to beendiggin) Post #: 14
