After the pontil jar I found the other day I was chomping at the bit to get back down to the ink hole. After removing some good sized boulders and broken mill stones I was in business. I have never had this much luck before finding pontil era bottles even though most are slicks and damaged. I did manage a couple embossed ones. A oppodledoc liquid any one know what that is? And a very whittled a Richards Co glue cement. I also found a nice Florida water this is the only large sized one I have ever found with an applied lip. All and all it was an awesome dig. Thanks for looking and the help- Justin

I just got from doing a little more digging with not much luck but o found some really interesting shards. Any ideas on the lip? It looks like an early case him. Then the pontil piece I have no clue.

That would have been a killer bottle if whole,but them case gins must have bulls eyes on them for they are not small bottles and I would think they are hard to find unbroken. More to follow, I am sure :thumbsup:

Holy smokes...

You had a really great dig! These are all so beautiful. I think that last 12 sided slick is my favourite though.

Awesome.

Thanks dude. I like these 12 sided bottles too. This is the second one I've found in the 4 years I have been digging glass.
