First two bottles

[MyIowagirl]

Not sure if I should post this here, if it should be in general just let me know. I found both these bottles buried in the creek on our property. Not really dug anything yet. They were found in different places so I have two spots to dig when it gets warm or thawed. I know the Leisy isn't worth much but still fun to find.

Great finds for not really digging! There should be plenty more goodies around there on your property.

The Leisy isn't rare, but it sure is a heckuvalot better than finding an ugly ABM shoulder-embossed one. From what I gather Leisy enjoyed quite the "export" market so their bottles turn up all over.

Good luck, hope you come back with more!

What's your opinion of the value of the Bitters? I've seen a couple different numbers on here. Nothing online that I can find at the moment.

Your finding those without digging, imagine the glass hiding if you dig down just a little bit!

Nice finds! I'm sure you will have a blast digging once the ground thaws. A very general estimate for the Greers would be $100-150, and the heavy wear/stain on yours would subtract from that.

Wow excellent finds! I would check out the Bitters a little more . Gives me an Idea of owning property.
