I live in Dearborn, been metal detecting 20 years, digging privys and dumps for 15 years. Let me know if you want to get together. I go all over the state. Dig mostly on weekends.

Me and Leon went out digging on Saturday and were planning on digging a spot we found last year but with the soft ground we started probing and I found 2 new real good spots with both turned out to be privys. The 1st was 1890's and the 2nd was 1870's. Found a few local druggists a PH Kling...
Went out digging at the local 1910 to 1940's dump with Leon on Monday. Nothing to great but 3 nice half pint milks & a quart milk and some other stuff. With Temps in the 40s had to get out and do something on my day off.

Comments OP...
You do tell a real good story. But the tip is about marble size. lol
With the age of those bottles, maybe we should go back there next weekend and probe along the ally there. All the people thought we were construction workers anyway. ?
