It is an unembossed product bottle, that may have contained any number of things. More experienced diggers generally leave these behind, or rebury them, unless they are somehow unique, or are colored and have window appeal. This is particularly true for 20th Century clear glass. I, too often wonder what a given bottle may have contained. Go dig up some good stuff... (in reply to Youngecollector) Post #: 4
