Here are my picks from an 8 foot pontiled privy we dug today. My best bottle is a pontiled puff in an amber color and a pontiled Dr. Jayne’s Tonic Vermifuge. I also got a pile of pontiled puffs and a hinge mold Upham’s No.1 Hair Dye. Some of the other bottles we got were some other embossed pontiled medicines and a local smooth based pony in a rectangular slugplate. We were hoping for a little more out of the hole because of it’s "down town" location but we got a couple nice bottles. I ALWAYS seem to forget my camera so i don't have any pics of the hole or the other two guys picks.

Nice finds Tom! Always nice to dig pontiled bottles even if most of them are puffs. The embossed ones are a plus. Did you dig those in Bellefonte or were you down east again. Once again, nice bottles Tom.

Sorry about the first poor picture. Here are a couple better daylight shots. This was dug in Eastern PA.
