Hello all:
Found this wierd one yesterday. Its the one on the right. Lets see how good you guys are. The label is on the other side. Quite a different bottle. I'll post it after I get done digging today. Anyone have some ideas on what it is ???? I'll post digging pics later today. High of 18 next week so I gotta dig today. Have a good weekend So what do you think was in the olive bottle??

Hmmm,
Do you mean the original use of the bottle, or what the label indicates it was last used for?
The green glass, shape, height and mouth of the bottle say a couple things to me, but that label and residue say something else.
I am going to guess a stove blacking product, or hair dye, from a local merchant.

I think he put it next to a whiskey to throw us off. I wasn't sure if it was residue or label I was seeing through. If we are talking residue, I must say Ink. However that lip speaks bitters or medicine of some sort. Your killing me. What is it?

Could be maybe a large Soda water bottle or beverage.

Excellent guess' all. Mike cheated. HA ! ! I told him before. Never seen a blueing bottle like this one. If not for the label I would have thought some sort of alcohal also. Do I keep the label??
Here is a digging video I shot before I began to dig for nothing. I found two marbles, a Conn med, and a cast iron pan all corroded. Should I keep the pan. I'm going back to get it tomorrow if you guys think it is worth it. Heavy as hell and all intact. Ben
video
Just a recap: Keep the label ?? Go get the iron pan?? Thanks again.

I try to be so honest but I could clean off the label and sell it for $2 as a nice different bottle. But I would know it was a blueing. Worth even less HAHAHAH. Sucks to be honest. But feels better.
