Did you dig them in a dump or a privy? do you know how to tell the age or date of that Coke bottle? Congrats. LEON.

Nice finds! I'm curious what that Elixir bottle is. And yeah that Coke bottle could definitely be a good one. If it was with the other bottles it's got to be an early one and it looks like it's in fantastic condition.

the coke bottle should be easiest to date , often the US ones had city names and patent dates on them .

Thanks! We dug them in a dump that has all different aged bottles. The coke bottle isn't that old, probably 1960's. We were really excited about the black glass, crock, and elixir alimentaire bottles.

Thanks! The elixir alimentaire has ducro a Paris on the other side. It also still has some type of metal seal around the lip
