Here is a little sneak preview of an upcoming Detecting Savannah Episode that I will be posting in a few weeks, but the footage is from yesterday's hunt. The bottles dug were both 1866 John Ryan's, but one was a cobalt blue large letter soda and the other a dark amber cider. The amber cider bottle was a surprise and a very nice rare specimen. You can see in the short video that I could see the cobalt blue John Ryan, but thought the other was just another soda. It wasn't until I got them home and cleaned them that I could see what I had actually dug.

Thanks guys. I'm not a huge bottle collector either, but the a John Ryan Cider bottle just like mine sold on ebay last September for $750. The other colbalt blue one is more common and goes for about $150 to $200. I may have to start putting some time into bottle digging too.
