What a year of digging I had. Here are the finds from the last two digs. Many more firsts including my first Warner's and tons more stoneware.
DAY 2 FINDS:
DAY 1 FINDS:
All in all, another great two days of digging and an outstanding digging year for me!
What an amazing early Christmas gift this was for me on the 23rd! It is an early one too, coming out of a dump no newer than 1916 or so. Found more nice bottles too. This year has been a killer one for me, cannot wait to do the completion summary of the best bottles and stuff I have dug this...
Well, I would say that this weekend was the best I have ever had! Literally the day after I dug that amazing bottle in my last post, I pulled another crazy bitters at a completely different spot I decided to visit with another buddy. It was more of a shallow farm dump, and we had found lots of...
This was absolutely a dream come true dig! I am speechless. just had the best weekend of digging ever! Here are the finds from an incredible spot, and I also have a full dig video on YouTube!
Yes, the bitters is absolutely perfect. No damage!
Ideas on what this is? Found in a large TOC area of a bottle dump in York County, PA. Thinking maybe snuff? It is NOT damaged or broken off at all
Very odd. Thoughts?
Thanks,

I've been digging a killer dump down in PA while at college and this is my first true porcelain sign I've ever dug! It is a rare one from what I have been told as well!
Thanks for looking,

I had dug a bunch of hobble skirt cokes a few weeks ago and just realized that one of them is listed as unknown in the Bill Porter (v2018) Directory! Looks like an unknown 1915 Bridgeport CT hobble skirt coke has been dug by me! The potentially unknown 1915 Bridgeport coke is on the right, next...
Dug this super early applied top three piece mold botte a while ago. Any Ideas on probable age range and use (likely civil war era ale?)? What would you call that type of base? I don't think its a pontil type, but I'm not 100% sure either.
Thanks,

Dug this broken shard of an OP bottle, any ideas on what it was? Maybe a hair bottle? I can't figure it out.
I can only make out:
..."T"
..."M"
... "IR"

I got an 1807 Farm Permission this past week to dig on and boy was it fun! Here are the finds and look out for a future YouTube video!

Back:
Early Ales (Probably Civil War Era) and Seam Side Flask in a killer Yellow Citron Color.

Healey & Bigelow Kickapoo Indian...
I dug this bottle this past week and was wondering if anyone could ID the initials in the monogram or had any idea what company the monogram stands for? The bottle was found in a spot with other broken squat sodas from NJ and NY in Southeastern CT if that helps at all.
Thanks...
Over spring break from college, I did a two-day dig at another new 1700s farm permission. Found two dumps, one was the 1930s-1950s dump and the other was 1800s-1920s. I took lots of videos while digging for YouTube. Part 1 is already up and part 2 will be up this Saturday. Found lots of amazing...
Just got back in CT today. Dug a few things for about an hour or two. Also found the 4th piece to my first porcelain sign I've ever dug (Miller Tires / Geared-To-The-Road) which I'll eventually mount to some wood and do a light surface cleaning.
Picked up a lot of great stuff from the show on Sunday. Even got a local bottle and a great rare pontil bottle from CT for $125!
I had a blast and also made lots of money (which will be used to buy more local stuff) by selling there! Can't wait for the next show which hopefully wont be...
When bottles like these are the first ones of the year, it is definitely a good sign for the future! These were found digging yesterday with a buddy who also found a nice one and even though that green one with the tubular pontil is broken off it is still killer and it was the first one dug in...
Here I'd like to post my last bottle aquired in 2021. A beautiful peacock blue toilet jar from a town in CT with barely any embossed bottles. It is apparently one of a handful known.
Here is to more great stuff to find and dig in 2022!
Happy New Years everyone!

Found my 2nd broken Geo. Eagle squat yesterday among other crier warners shards and even a piece of a raspberry puce Drakes bitters. Getting closer to stuff, lol
This is the broken one I found before...
These are my favorite cans dug by me dug that were cleaned for me by a buddy.
A very neat Cliquot club!
Scarcer CT cone top
Nice oil cans!
A great pictorial!
Well, I must be getting close to finding a killer spot! Anyone know what that dark olive square might have been from those pieces in the 2nd photo? Maybe a Olive green Townsends? Also I'm sure that yellow piece is familiar to many of you.
My buddy cleaned some more cans found by me and they turned out amazing! I love the Thermo!
Definitely a great job! I owe my buddy a dig now, lol
Thanks for looking,
