Hi,
I was out hunting for sea glass and came upon this bottle. I have posted pictures (sorry, some are sideways). Does anyone out there know how old it is and what it used to contain? You can see the markings on the bottom which read, B II 5 X. Thank you so much for your help!
Hey Y'all,
I thought I'd share my first privy dig with you guys, from October 23rd, 2015. Since I shared that repaired transferware pitcher with you I might as well show you what else I found that day. One thing I do regret is not taking enough pictures. But I was having so much fun that I...
Need Help on a glass company I can't find ANY info on.
So, I looked through this forum and found a similar bottle but produced by another glass manufacturer. But I can't seem to find any information on the company labeled on the bottom of my bottle. I have an exact bottle but it's made by the...
The woods that I found these in have been ridiculously thick with autumn olive for at least 30 years I'm guessing, so it's not likely that many people have ventured through lately, and it's even more unlikely that someone decided to stop and have a drink there. These are probably fairly old, but...
All bottles were found in the woods, which have been taken over by Autumn Olive. It's not likely that anyone has walked through in 30 years because it has grown so thick, so I'm almost positive that none of these are remakes.

Hi All,
First time poster! I have recently started collecting (ok, hoarding) antique bottles. Last week my boyfriend went to an estate sale to a household that had THOUSANDS of bottles. Lucky for him (unlucky for me) I wasn't feeling well and I had to sit that sale out. Anyways..... he...
While digging In my usual spot I pulled out this. Any ideas what it may have contained? :icon_scratch:

Hi, Can someone help with value/information on these glass demijohn's? They both measure about 18" in height. The brown one is about 14" wide.
New member here. I really like bottle digging but it's kind of a drag driving 1.5 hours just to go do it. Was wondering if anyone knows of any that are on land you can dig on in and around the capital region of NY. I'm in Saratoga county. Just send me a messege if you know. I'm willing to...
Hey!
I'm completely new to this site, but was hoping that I might could get some insight on a bottle that we found.
From the research that I've done, I know, for a fact, that it is Duraglas. The insignia on the bottle is the logo from the company. The number to the left is a '4', the number...
Hello! I'm pretty new to TN and I found a stash of old glass in my woods. Some of it was still intact, some was not. It consisted of a variety of jars and bottles. It was easy cleaning the jars, I just rinsed off the dirt and threw it into a dish washer. However, the bottles are a little bit...

I was on a hike in my woods and following a small creek looking for cool rocks to take home. I spotted a glass bottle buried under the mud in the creek. I picked it up, brought it home, and now I am trying to figure out what it is and when it is from. On the bottom it says the following...
Hi, I made an account here just to post this. Since I'm new, I apologize if I'm not following the format correctly or should post elsewhere. I've come across this bottle of Pedigree Whiskey produced by Seagrams and am looking for any relevant information, such as date it was bottled and how much...
I have this 8 oz, glass, coke bottle that appears to be vintage. The problem is that it has a expiration date from 2008 on it. I did research on 8 oz glass coke bottles from 2008, and could not find this kind. Can you can return used bottles to the manufacturer, and they refill them, or is this...
I do not think this bottle is anything special, but I'm curious on the age. I found one on ebay but it said nothing about the age.
Here is the kind of bottle I found, Any idea on the age. Vintage Embossed Anheuser Busch Beer Bottle Amber | eBay
Thanks
Tonight I was digging in the 1870s-1890s trash pit in my yard and found these ornate bottles. They have no brand names on them. I'm wondering what they are ???. I'm not planning on selling them, but what are they worth?
I'm pretty new to bottle digging and this website as well. I'm from New Hampshire and Vermont, but I recently found a small bottle dump and I've slowly been digging it in my free time. I've found lots of medicine, ink, and whiskey bottles, and canning jars. A lot of common bottles but a few good...
I found this silver perfume bottle pendant in a free box at a garage sale! It was tarnished. I cleaned it up when I got home. I couldn't find any hallmarks on it. It looks to be hand wrought. It also looks to be sterling. This is going to sound crazy but I have read that sterling has a sweet...
my uncle gave me a bottle and i wanted to know what it is. He said that he found it in the woods. My friends mom said it was a beer bottle. just wanted a second opinion. Please and Thank you
Hi everybody,

Went down to the 1830's home site today where my friend Oradden and I have been going for the past several days. I decided to dig around the area that was producing quite a few bones and the majority of broken glass. Just above this area was a small tree clinging on to some rocks with its roots...
It was found digging around in our front yard. It has the sheen to it that I've seen in older bottles, but I have no clue where to start with IDing the approximate year. Front and back are shown.
Thanks!

Hello all!
I won a storage auction that was full of items that appear to gave been brought up from a shipwreck!
The jar (which still has 80% of it's cap) is holding what appears to be musket balls - it is VERY heavy.
But what I can't be sure of is the clump of what looks like more musket balls...
Hello there, I am new to this site and I hope that I am doing this correctly. I used to dig up old outhouses with my grandfather and this is one of the things we dug up in PA. I had did some looking online and I believe it is a liquor bottle of some sorts and maybe from the Glenshaw bottle...
My grandma had a Molokai Beverages Bottled by Molokai Electric Co, and a Coke Bottle with Molokai on the bottom. I'm curious to know what those may be worth (although I'm keeping them, because they're cool!). Any thoughts, or links to sights for more assistance is appreciated!
Found in the yard of an 1850's home. There was another home on the site previously.
Bottle seems to be made of brass.
The top screws off and seems to have held a small amount of liquid.
Thanks.
Lately, i have been looking for some pontilled bottles. what would you advise paying for slick pontilled bottles at, say, a flea market? I cant seem to afford any embossed ones. are they even worth picking up? i know this might be a "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" type deal, but i would...

I found a Frank Fehr Brewing Co. bottle (Louisville, KY) today while I was metal detecting a lake.
It's in wonderful shape - but I don't know a darned thing about collectible bottles!
I believe it used to hold beer... and the I know now that the co. went out of business in 1964.
Tips on how to...
Hi,
I'm new to Tnet but have been collecting bottles and insulators for close to 3 years now. I have this bottle that has been puzzling me as to what it is. It has a bit of an extra glass lip at the top. Any help is appreciated.:icon_thumright:
