Aloha Everyone,
Went digging on Tuesday and started a new hole, I dug during the evening till night, I just reached the bottom and decided to return the next day because I had to work in the morning, after I finished work I went back and open up the hole even larger, I found a hole bunch of medicines and alcohol bottles all slickers, I did find a few bottles that I took home, the find of that night was a ginger beer with a "rare" FOUNTAIN MINERAL SODA WORKS HONOLULU H.I. porcelain cap attached to it, unfortunately the cap came off because the stopper was totally rusted, the cap is considered very rare and desirable to Hawaii collectors I seen one sell a few months ago on ebay that went over 200 bucks.

Yesterday I had the day off and returned to the same hole, this time it was more productive...Dug two "rare" large size Hawaiian Medicine Bottles and one small one...A 6 inch HOBRON DRUG COMPANY HONOLULU and 2 HOLLISTER DRUG CO. L'T'D. FORT STREET HONOLULU, H.I. the larger one is just slightly over 7 inches, very thin glass always some kind of damage to these medicines bottles fortunately these came out nice, any Hawaiian Medicine Bottles are very desired bottles by collectors in Hawaii and 6 inches are larger are the cream of the crop...
