    Bromo Seltzer Bottle

    I found this perfect specimen of a Bromo Seltzer bottle in my back yard in what was once an old fire pit. I was shocked to find it whole. Near as I've been able to find out, this type of three lug bottle was used back in the late 1940's. I'm just tickled that it didn't have a single scratch on it.

    Hey I found the cap that goes to that bottle. Actually this is the larger 4 lug cap. Nice find.

    Nice find there gotreasurehunting! I have one like it but mine has a number of scratches on it, but I still love it. Neat that you didn't have to go far to recover it, eh? Silly question maybe, but have you been over that back yard of your's much with your detector yet?

    later,
    Keep on sweepin'...
