    Needing Some Help

    Found this bottle tonight while fishing, just a few feet off the bank and on top the sand. These are the best photos i have for now, hope it's enough for some free help about the age...thanks.

    Old Beer Cellar

    Nice find CreekWalker...no I've never found anything, but only once have I been back with the metal detector. It's a very long walk and i seem to get older each year...go figure! It's also very grown up and on private property but it's not posted. I need to go back one more time for a much...

    Canal Era Jug ?

    I hear that, for years I've been looking for one and finely found it. A new part of the river i never hunted before...happy I made the trip. Never dug a privy but know where one is. No one was willing to help me dig, this house had hand hued logs in the basement with the bark still on the beams...

    Old Beer Cellar

    Found this very interesting building one day going off trail hiking. For years after finding this place i had no idea was it was. It's made of local sandstone and has a spring running through it. It's dome shaped with dirt on top and in a hill side. The date for this Beer Cellar is 1862, Forest...

    Old Rock Quarry Find

    Was out hunting with the metal detector, hunting an old local sandstone quarry. What made it interesting was someone took the left behind sandstone and made a shelter...two shelters. On this day i was just going for a walk, i never waste a good walk so i'm always looking and hunting for...

    Canal Era Jug ?

    Money wise not a biggie to me, just having one of these jugs is enough for me. Like I've said before, 99% of the time all you find of these jugs is the broken tops and the bottoms all smashed up. When I first seen this jug half hidden in mud and one foot of water...i about s#!t a brick. Then I...

    Found a new site

    As age goes it's all relative, a bottle form the 50s depending how old you are can or seem like ages ago. I still find it very interesting to find and learn about the different bottles even from the 30s, 40s, and 50s...nice finds & thanks for sharing.

    What is it ?

    I wouldn't know without looking at the local history, being wood it's hard to tell how far down river it has traveled...thanks for replying.
