Went digging on Monday at a new place we found. Didn't get much but did get this really cool nutmeg bottle. It looks very similar to an ink and that's what I thought I had found when I unearthed it. But then I found the very light embossing saying nutmeg. It even came with the wire handle which I thought was very cool. The lip is really chipped up from what I guess used to have a metal band or something on it. I dug a lamp that had this same kind of chipping from a metal band. Anyway, I hope you guys like it as much as I do. Joey
