    Recent finds and some ?'s

    i accidently posted this in the wrong place before, now i'm going to move it here. The little green bottle in the front had an eyedropper, it was patented 1934. The bottle on the far right, might it be a chock vitamin bottle? I like the little jar with the textured sides, probably newer...

    picture of recent finds and ?'s

    The little green bottle in the front had an eyedropper, it was patented 1934. The bottle on the far right, might it be a chock vitamin bottle? I like the little jar with the textured sides, probably newer but anyone know what it is? Is the liquor bottle worth keeping? I'm still trying to...

    Maybe a digger would help

    I had some small luck finding interesting jars in a dump sight. I posted it under the jars forum because they are jars but i only got one response. I didn't want to post it in the wrong place, but maybe the jar forum doesn't get as much traffic and i don't want to post it twice, being new...

    Old Home Site

    I found a flat area on our wooded property where there is a lot of glass shards in the surface dirt. Was trying to make sure if it was a home site so i took the metal detector and found a lot of iron and nails. So there must have been a house there. Found one sunken place that might be a...

    River Raking

    Ok, it was technically a creek. Plan for today was to poke around in the gravel bars in the creek, try to find bottles/jars that had washed out from the ravine. To get to the sandbar, i had to go through hip high weeds and burrs. Made a lot of noise to scare away the snakes but there was...

    New member, by way of a Jumbo jar

    Hi everyone! New member here, my name is Penny and i live in West Virginia. The creek is down (dry spell) and so went walking around on the gravelly creek bed where there would normally be water. I found a Jumbo peanut butter jar laying there slightly under some shallow water. I already got one...
