Hello, new here. I enjoy exploring around, and come across bottles the majority of the time, which I have to grab. If anyone can aid in dating them, or if any are worth anything (unlikely) it would be appreciated!

Don't really see anything of value but hey you never know. I believe the first one you posted is the oldest of the group. That Jack Daniels dates to probably 1895-1900 or so

That Jack Daniels is a great find. Tooled top. That one cleaned with no issues will bring some bucks. Jgas

The first one is real nice. (Jack Daniels I think it says?) The top is tooled which dates it to late 1800s maybe turn of the century. Try cleaning it up cuz that would make a nice display piece.

That hand-blown Jack Daniels bottle is a killer find, one with significant lip damage sold recently for 250 bucks: Super Rare 1880 Jack Daniels Old Time Distillery Lynchburg TN Cylinder Bottle | eBay

If the mineral stain inside is calcium then filling it with vinegar ought to clean it up. The other bottles are mostly recycle-bin material but the whiskey more than makes up for it. Not too often that you find 300 dollar bottles laying around!
