Not sure of a few.

Hi Folks! i found these in a farm dump, some are newer and some i'm not to sure of the age. I will post a few different bottles, i hope that's ok. These two i'm not sure of, the one on the right is embossed with cc, up 140 cc's, and up to 5 ounces, it has a weird 3 and VI, the one on the left reads, "contents, 8 fluid ounces. What would the one on the right be used for, any idea's?

Thank-you

This bottle has a W and a 6 on the bottom, how old is it? was it used for whiskey or wine?

Check out this site. It will help you with a lot of your questions. It is by one of our forum family members.

The one on the right in the first pic is a standard med. There are about a dozen or so sizes of that same bottle. I think the one in the second pic would be wine judging on color alone.

Yeap the med is common enough that you can recycle them and make a little money. My wife and I dug a dump where 30% of the bottles were that type in 15 or so sizes.

The other looks like a scotch or other type of wisky bottle. If the color is really that lite and yellowish you could probably get $10 for it.

Thanks Folks! i will check out that site. The big bottle is more green, just the way the sun is hitting it. It's the biggest bottle i've found that wasn't broken at my dump site.

hey josh keep digging , that wine bottle is nice, any writing on the bottom? next time you dig post some more pix love to see them mike

Hi Mike, The only writing on the bottom is a "6 with a W" on the opposite side. I love digging for bottles, it's alot of fun, i'm sure that i won't be able to figure out what some bottles are, so they will be posted, I will try to get a good shot of this dump and put it up.

Thanks, Take Care!
