I just did, it's a good feeling. Sorry for the hijack.

Wow, not very deep for an 1860s bottle there. Great luck. Also, I still have 95% of my collection to photograph. Just been to busy applying to jobs the past week. Never ever work in oil and gas by the way... Industry is tanking hardcore for the past 5 months. Gotta dig me some bottles; although every place except for a few has been dug around here in Pittsburgh.

Anyways, here's the rest of my collection I gotta photograph.

Yeah, Maybe hit Flask at 3 feet deep. 4 feet as deep as it got. Most Privy's in Michigan seem to average 4 to 6 feet. We once dug what must of been a trash pit that had about 30 1870's flask all bunched together in a small hole that we were probably hitting bottles at 1 foot deep, maybe less & it only got 2 feet deep. so from 1 foot to 2 feet was nothing but a layer of 1870's flask piled up together. never seen anything like it. the bad news is every embossed or pictorial flask was broke while every slick was whole. to much of a coincidence. LEON.
