    Yes, yes, yes, get back there and get some more! You've got a nice blob top soda/beer bottle on the left, and nice art deco style soda bottle, and an amber quart milk bottle. The Phillips, while nicely colored, is so common I just recycle them. The rest are well worth keeping, and highly collectible. Good luck!

    If these were surface finds ya gotta dig deeper. If it is an old dump the bottles may get older as you dig deeper.

    Yes top layer of a pretty good size mound.Like I posted on another site,this is in the woods connected to a farm where I'm making metal detecting finds from the late 1800s(80s) to about the '30s.Thanks again to all!

    Anyone can make life interesting you just have to go out there and do things instead of sitting on your butt doing nothing. Second quote: Life is about trying new things not just standing around.
