Unfortunately I have realized that this town dump of mine is not very old ( i think ) maybe I just haven’t dug deep enough but anyways, here are my finds for yesterday! Before and after the clean. I also found the bottom piece to this nice nadinola cream container 1AE4B5B3-A862-4C6A-BDFB-41D4C76AC7EC.jpeg122B0F5C-5594-4FA4-9C5A-BF812B6F0325.jpegimage.jpg

most of the dumps that you'll find easily won't be that old , the older stuff is well hidden by now and won't be visible from surface

Looks like it's just old enough to be of interest, so I'd definitely consider it worth digging. That Nadinola pot is a nice find, never seen one of those before. Looks like you've got the base to a Hutch in there too, so that's a good sign!

I have also found a nice big piece of a straight side coke but never even seen a piece of a 1915 or 1928 coke, it’s kinda strange

The dump itself is actually really deep, around 9-10 feet in some places, it’s just really hard to dig through because the ground is hard and filled with bottles and rocks

Also along the back of the dump, there is a large dry creek bed that is filled with bottle bits and pieces, I usually dig on the side of the creek and that’s where I find my stuff

If it's that big they were likely dumping there for quite a few years. If you're finding a mix of ages in the creek then there are probably older sections, the trick is to figure out where they are.
