Here is some of what came out of the ground this morning. There's a few more outside yet to be cleaned, but I think some of these are pretty neat!

Thank you, I like those as well (cant believe how heavy they are) also the cobalt ones. The small ones are bromo seltzer and squibs, not sure about the huge one. Found lots of odd Ball jars as well.

Was rained out today, but will be going back soon. I have to figure out and learn what I'm even looking for, found the spot by chance when metal detecting on my uncle's property, some sort of small old dump or giant privy.


Found these as well

The label on the Quench is in pretty good shape, usually they don't come out of the ground that nice anymore so you're lucky with that one! It's not a brand I've ever seen before, guessing it's probably something local to you.

Screw-top heaven looks like you're in a 20 or 30 dump it will probably be full of milk glass
It probably is a small old dump. There were homes within a mile since the late 1800s. There's a mortared rock wall or foundation section and clothesline about 50-75ft from where I'm digging.

This is all very new and I don't know what I should be looking for or where I should be digging.

This is the rock wall/foundation and a pic of 2 of the 4 wells about 500ft from the site.
