Solid Gold mine of bottles

[cmthunder]

Had day off so headed to Cecil Md 1694 farm permission. Decided to try new wooded spot that showed a house. The woods were littered with bottles everywhere. Everytime I went to dig I hit bottles, broken glass, mason jar lids. I gathered a bunch of the cooler bottles. McCormick, GPR, Hoyt’s, Dr S PH & Co, Geoff’s Bitters, Chessbrough NY, Menly-JamesNew York-London with lid.
After I got tired of digging bottles I went back to main farm and hit a spot Dad and I had hammered. Next to driveway a get a solid 19 on equinox 600 and pull the Solid Gold Ring. No numbers. I did some reading that this was common in 1800’s. But I would need to get it tested to find karat amount.
