????question about a bottle?? with pics

[trevmma]

found these digging in the yard dump today, i think one is what they call black glass it is a little miss shaped, bubbles in glass, not round or smooth, very heavy and thick. no seam anywhere and has a very deep bottom, others are cork tops or crowns one twist cause i like the color, a bone brush and 2 pocket watches, im about 3 feet down

Not black glass.Date it about 1860ish. Nice bottles though. 8)

did turn molding have a slight off balance , one side is a little concave and other is pushed out
how old are bone brushes

Turn of the century wine bottle circa 1900. Probably a turn mold with no visible mold seams.

Well heres the bottom of one just like it i found that nothing came from later then 1860's.
Also might want to look at this page at bottom and notice the era.

Yea I use to have a couple thousand stopper tops of all kinds.It was fun hunting them but was lots of work too.And only a few out of that many really had any value.So got tired of doing it and started Mding for a past time.Still find some now and then but not much digging going on.My best was the 1740 english mallet I found sticking out the bank Mding.Money wise back when I did it it was the sodas that brought the most on a regular basis.Draped pepsi,Bradham pharmacy pepsi,& a few oldies we caught off shore dragging.Being so close to New Bern N.C. you could find the old pepsi now and then.
