It was under a huge root 2ft down, took a good 1/2 hr. Good looking, but fairly common
Yes, the Mint bottle looks great. --Was the White Sox shot glass also buried or just for comparison? What do you think JStorm? A good omen for the team?

When I found one of these I was so stoked, thought I had bagged a really rare bird. Then everyone told me it was common. But none of these people had one, and I had never seen one in 20 years of digging and collecting, not even shards. Yours here is the second one I've ever seen so to me, so I call it uncommon.

I agree, to me the look,color and the time to get it out in one piece it's rare to me
