First Full Bottle!

[Minkey]

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. So I pulled out a rock and out came a mess of broken pottery, glass, and bone. I brushed through the pile to find this little guy, my very first pontilled bottle! Thanks for all the help guys! Have to go back to find some more!

Nice work! There are still more there you know....

Congratulations on your find. The bottles might scattered all over the yard just under the ground. You guys may be walking over them. Do some more digging along the wall too. Looking forward to seeing more finds soon.

Thanks! Any ideas on what this bottle may have contained?

Sweet! I still have yet to find a pontilled bot because I've only been hunting for about a year.Definitely on my bucket list. I'm super jealous.

Nice find!!!! I have one that looks very similar to yours from Savannah Georgia. Ain't no doubt that you are hunting in the right area. Good luck!

 

[Oradden]

I'm mad.

 

[Minkey]

Hahaha don't worry, we'll find more.

Hey Minkey,

From your lips direct to the Bottle Godz' ear, eh. Congratulations on a nice sided puff. I gotta hunch that you and Oradden are close to cracking the code on this place.

Continued good luck.

That's a sweet bottle, great find

What is this bottle? I believe someone said a "puff"? Can't find any info online about it though.

Hey Oradden,

That would be me. "Puff" is old bottle guy lingo for a small unembosssed pontiled bottle, that would have been blown by the gaffer with a single puff.

Surf, you make this hobby a lot more interesting for us. Thank you.
