Was digging in the 1924-capped landfill today and found a Pat. Nov. 30th 1858 Mason's Jar with a grounded lip.
This is my first jar of this type! So excited! Interestingly I also found a 1910 V nickle next to the jar. I need to bring my metal detector to see if there are any more coins...
Found these bottles over the last 48 hours.
Today's find was a cute mini blob-top bottle for Broe & Gorman.

After a quick rinse in the water:

Vaseline jar it has bubbles in glass all around it I did some research I found it's from 1880's this is the oldest find so far for me since I started digging 5 years ago.
I went back to my usual spot hoping the water would be clearer. It was sort of. Clarity went from 6 inches to about 1.5 feet. I had mediocre finds the whole time until I was swimming back to get out. Then I pulled 4 bottles and a jar from the same spot. Here's the haul.
This was everything I...
. I recently came across this beautiful intact Vaseline jar on a recent dig. I'm pretty new to bottle digging and was wondering if anyone could tell me what this could be worth? Thanks!
Found this jar. After getting help from others on this site, I believe it to be a wax sealing jar missing it's lid and bail. The lip may be a tooling flaw as it is smooth to the touch. There are several bubbles in the glass. Two that are large: 1-1/8"x 2/8" oval, and one 1-1/4" x 1' that...
I am posting this for someone else......calling all BALL PERFECT MASON specialists and collectors.........is this a case of SCA (naturally darkened by the sun) or a case of Irradiation? (I say nuked, but not a serious collector of these).... The owner says the color is much fainter (closer to...
What is it/was it used for?
What's the crest?
Is it valuable?
I'm thinking some sort of old Crown Royal bottle(due to the crest) but I'm probably off base..
Any help is appreciated!
Hi Folks, New member here. I’m trying to figure out the date of this Keiller Marmalade jar. I can’t find any similar ones online. From my research I discovered that the company was established in 1797 and became “James Keiller and Sons” in 1828. Does the fact that “and sons” is missing from my...
What color is this jar? It seems to be mixed of green and brown/yellow, but the top part seems to be aqua. Any info about this would be helpful. Thanks. The top is pretty sharp, not smooth.
