Not pictured are a 1941 wheatie! And my buddy found a 1941 merc while digging in the bottle dump as well as some bottles not pictured. Clad also not pictured.:laughing7::laughing7: The mason is a stock photo as I forgot to get a pic of the actual one as I left it at my parent's house.

The bottle dump is not super old, an older one close to it has been dug decently. Here are two of the better bottles plus a few other detecting finds of mine. The porcelain dog was found by my buddy in the dump. Very happy about the milk bottle.

I love finding old dumps. You said it was not that old. Are you very deep into it yet? Sure hope it goes down a ways. Great milk bottle and the mason looks in great shape. Got pictures of the bottom and top of the rim? You did really good. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks man, the mason is actually a stock photo I had saved to show someone (the rest are the real ones, the actual one is on display at my parents as I didn't get a pic yet. I'll post pics of the actual one. We need to get better shovels to get deeper. Near the older dump there are so many shards of super old bottles but we don't know how deep the previous peeps got. Thanks for the reply.:occasion14:
