That is a very nice bottle and hard to get too. I presume you are in Australia ? if so what state do you dive in if you don't mind me asking ? A lot of my bottles I get out of creeks and rivers too.
G'day Irish
Yes I'm Australian
I'm a Victorian, near Benalla.
I haven't tried dive yet just wading and probing up to about five feet deep. I also got the Wilson Crosbie & co also listed in the prize possessions in the same river. Which I believe is a early Melbourne bottle.
I'm going out later today so I hope to be able to add more to the site.[]
Hi Riverdigger, your last post really hits home. Like Carmo and Irish, I am also an Aussie digger, hailing from Adelaide. I dig a dump about half an hour's walking distance, daing from 1920 to 1960.
Mostly slim pickings, as you said. I have yet to dig any Codds.
Yeh I remember that Brad, it was a good day. Think I might owe you a bottle or two.
Hopefully I will be doing a bit more digging when I get home from Tassie, say g'day to Tom for me.
