Hello all, I found this marble digging one day and I'm curious to know something about it. It has 3 circle indents on it. Is it pontiled or just a fluke.
Thanks

Hey diggers, Check out this lil jewel. Found this one on a levy in Louisiana. Bayou was dredged and I went pokeing around in the smut, smelly mud, tapped this with the rod and pulled her out. What do ya'll think it was or is? Help....

Hello all, I look at all the pic's ya'll post and I see the flask ya'll dig and man I'll never see one of those down south. I'll trade the Ice Wagon I just found for a flask. So if interested show me what flask you have to trade for it and perhaps we can make it happen. Thanks everyone.

Hey all, I found this little cast iron piece under an old house. The people wouldn't let me probe or dig in their yard but allowed me to crawl under house. Well it's better than nothing.

Hey everyone, I'm not able to get out much to try and dig, but coming on here and looking at the pics posted from digs is just awesome. Looking at the pics gives me just as much excitement as being out there, but nothing can replace that sqeak sound of a shovel scraping against a bottle in the...
Hello all, check out this Pontiled bottle I dug. It reads HOUBICANT-CHARDIN (in circular pattern), PARIS, ET, LONDRES. Stands 4-1/2" nice circular pontil scar does have a chip on lip. Anyone that can tell me anything about it I would appreciate it.
Hello all, Here are pics of Rick and I on a hillside dump he took me to. Wow if the kids hadn't been breaking bottles here for years it would have been a house full. Digswithstick pulled his whole collection out of here even though many were broke and someone else had beat him to this spot...

Hi all, I'm visiting in Franklin, PA. right now and my Mother-in-Law has been telling me of this old lady who lives alone and has alot of bottles in her windows. Well finally today we passed by and she was outside and my M-in-Law knows her so we stopped. She invited us in so I can look at her...
Hello all, I'll be flying into Erie on Sat. the 26th and staying for a week in a little town named Franklin about an hour drive. If there are any diggers in the area I would love to tag alone and observe the dig. Since my medical condition is not good for my legs I would just love to see the...
Hello all, Here is another find I had gotten from an Estate Sale about a month ago. The people didn't know what it was, it stands 3-1/4". I paid $3.50 for it. To bad all of the label wasn't on it. Happy digging and finding.

Hello to all diggers, I'm sad to say that my digging life has come to an end. My health will not permit me to do so anymore. It's hard giving up something I love so much. So I ask you all to post pictures, alot of pic's, I really enjoy looking at the digs and the finds. Anyway thank you all for...
Hello everyone, I'm just returning home from the hospital from suffering a heart attack. While in the hospital I thought about the bottles I need to mail to two members and I do remember who you are now and will complete that transaction this weekend or have my wife do it. I'm trying to regain...
