I was out metal detecting and stumbled on a possible new site =)
there was a 3' x 3' (approx.) area where the soil was way softer than the surrounding area. I only dug for a few minutes as I was headed back to the car, but I found these three (below), a bunch of busted up bricks/tiles, and some old pieces of plates and saucers.
The odd thing is that the finds (though found inches from each other) seem to be from different decades. The McCormick Bottle and the brown one seem to me to be from maybe the 40s or 50s even and the Chamberlain's I could swear was from the 20s
Either way, they made me a happy fellow =) Now I need to get a bottle probe to see whether it's worth digging deeper.
Also, the brown one smelled like death wrapped in poop when I first got it open. I nearly barfed =/
