Went hiking around the woods by Lake Tahoe hoping to find an older something, anything.
Came across a very small creek coming down from a steep mountainside that had a lot of visible older glass and china fragments. Pulled a couple of intact bottles from the black mud. They had all of the graphics and writing when I pulled them out. Didn't have my phone or I would have taken a pic or two.
Got a great signal on the detector and pulled the medicine sample aluminum container. Rang up just like a silver dollar...Dang!
A few minutes later I got a signal just like a half dollar and pulled up the 80th anniversary Seagram Distillers medallion.
Unfortunately, all the graphics on the bottles rubbed off in my backpack.
They were "Cock and Bull Bombay Water" bottles with really neat looking images and writing. Oh well.
Gotta study up on how to preserve the graphics on old bottles like that.
Thanks for lookin!
