Old beer bottle (1970s) I think.

Okay, last one for the night. Like I said, I don't think these are worth very much money, but they are what is on the surface. There are some interesting bottles (I'm brand new to this, so they may not be that neat to someone with more experience). For example, this square bottle looks pretty neat, though I like the colorful bottles better. There are bottles everywhere, so I have a lot more photos. One looks like a barrel. I would think it would have been some type of root beer, but I couldn't find it when I tried searching for it online.

alot of the newer bottles on the surface are likely worthless , i'd recycle them if you have glass recycling in your area or just take them to the dump .
but i'd keep digging and your likely to find more interesting bottles under the junk , its likely over the years other people have picked up anything good that was on the surface but its unlikely they dug up the site . older local pop bottles or coca cola bottles from that era could still have some value .

Thanks! I think I will keep all of the interesting ones and clean them for display. The monetary value is something I want to know but doesn't subtract from how much I like them. All the others I may try to convert into vases by cutting off the tops, sanding the rims, and painting the insides. Otherwise, I will recycle or trash the rest. I will need to check into glass recycling, but that is a great idea.
