My First Bottle Dump Hunt With Secret Message

[Vldetecting]

So while the ground is still frozen here in Sweden I thought about a place that I've seen a lot of bottles dumped before. So I thought to myself, why don't I go for a short hour hunt there? And today I went there, the place is like a small flat square area were you can barely see small tracks of cars dumping stuff since the early 1900's to the late 1900's. There was a LOT of trash there, for example car roofs, tons of broken pottery, couple of iron barrels etc. The stuff had been dumped on a steep hill along the river so it was a little hard to walk there without falling into the river. I found a lot of bottles but most of them were junk from the 70's-90's and here's what I thought was good enough to keep:

One brown colored medic or beer bottle?:


A small medicin looking bottle:


An early to mid 1900's Vademecum bottle for mouthwash with mint taste.


I haven't cleaned the bottles entirely yet but I will.
There was also one jar with a iron lid on it that contained a piece of paper in it, when I opened it it was only a piece of colored newspaper. The jar had laid there with the iron lid on it in the dirt for awhile so it eventually got broken from rust and that's why I can't unwrap or see that much on it:



I also found some iron while digging, one button and seven buckles. I think it would be quite hard to find that many buckles in an hour:

I would guess the brown one is medical related of some sorts. Nice going on the glass and the buckles.
There's one thing that most dumps have in common, the deeper you go-the older it gets. Best of luck on your return visit.

Very nice. I always enjoy picking up the bottles when I'm out detecting. They display very nicely.
