Newbie here and as I am enjoying my new "collection" I also need to know if some of what i am bringing home is even worth it. The other day, while making one more round through some great shed spots, I found yet another surface dump. Good thing for the backpack as I couldnt let some of those dairy bottles and a couple of abm soda bottles that looked different stay behind...or should I have?? Are bottles like this even worth collecting or not?

The dairy bottles are from Chestnut Farms dairy in Chevy Chase and Fairfax Dairy in D.C. The two cool sodas are Cass "dry ale" and "soda water" but from the Coke-Cola bottle company in D.C.....anything embossed and Coke I figur is worth at least holding to for a trip home. All in great condition and embossed. Oh yea a White House vinegar embossed with a nice picture if the White House....never know so close to D.C and all.[:D]

Last but not least I found one of my COOLEST sheds ever!![:-]

It's really just subjective....If you like them, they're worth bringing home.... Really cool antler!

if my memory is correct the milks are on the more common side an the white house vinger if you have cap wouls bring 10.00 + depending on the size.. so you did pretty good on your outing
