[mikefct57]

Hi, i was digging a stump in my back yard in ct. and i starting finding stuff. I havent stopped digging for a week. Everything that ive found seems to be from the late 1800 or early 1900 . I found some cool bottles including 1 ink, 1 swamproot, 1 each of beer,wine,soda 1amber flask,and 1 blue sarratoga springs, 1 clear dentine,and somemore. I also found german doll head 1899 and a rusty toy gun says expert on it. 1 0ld marble. 4 bottle stoppers glass? 1alfred wright with stopper in it but is cracked. some brass and copper gas light pieces. I will post some pics when my son has time. sorry for all the rambling just this has been exciting to me. I do have a question. I found seven different carriage co. tags. are these collectible.

Welcome to the forum and good luck with your finds,...Finding bottles that age in your yard is great! I'm pretty sure you should hang on to those tags...
