Metal detecting & bottle dump digging

5/10/10 - Went out metal detecting with Lookin4Seated & CladTheImpaler for a few hours. We did find some silver and some wheaties and lots of clad, I just found 3 wheats from the 40's and about $2 in clad.

We called it quits and met up with D-Dub and decided to hit up the old bottle dump and try our hand at digging bottles. Our hunt was cut short because I had an electrician waiting at my apartment to try and find a broken wire in my wall which killed half of my apartments power. Anyways enjoy.

So you gave them the glass fever now, eh Kermit?!?
The COP bottle is from the '33 Expo in Chicago, nice find!
As always greatest show on TNet!

Hope you get the place lit up again soon!

Cool bottle dump!!
Is that the same one you told me about last year?

This past weekend at the Chisholm Trail Hunt we found one
along a creek. . . some of the folks pulled out some neat glass.
