Thought I'd share a small part of my
50+ yrs of digging/collecting.
Also...a wall I'm building...a few yrs in the making...& a few yrs left in the making, to finish.
The crock 1870-1880 beers (seen in wall images), were ALL found in Coquille, OR at one fairly small dumpsite...along w/LEA & PERRINS Worchester Sauce bottles...equal to the many stoneware beers. A couple of other odds & ends bottles were also found...I concluded this dump was likely a close-by local bar/eatery of sorts. Anyways...I cut the beers needed for my wall lengthwise (& many of the sauce bottles too), w/tile wet-saw.
There are numerous agates, geodes, petrified woodS, river rock from the Rogue, Coquille, Sixes, Pistol Rivers, many other places worldwide & many beautiful purchased oddities in this wall...a lotta work!
Hope you enjoy viewing,
Byron
PS
Last 2 images are of a couple of other ~cool~ finds
1) a GARRATT S.F. CA., steam whistle from the 1870s
2) a 1-wing OWL DRUG with a gorgeous iridescence.
