After work dig.

RelicDude · Apr 20, 2016

The weather was so nice today I had to get down to the ink hole. I dug for a half hour but I think I'm getting to something good. I only found this pontiled jar but this thing has a really crude rolled lip. And a very jagged open pontil. Anyone know anything about these? Thanks for looking- Justin

Beauty! Darn I wish I had a hole like yours where I could casually pull out pontiled bottles and shards of historical flasks after work, haha. Absolutely awesome, keep 'em coming!

I'm excited to see what else you may pull!

Taught science in a high school built in 1933. Lots of old stuff. We stored acids in bottles like that one. Glass stoppers closed them up.

Another nice find Justin. Looks like a food jar to me but I've been wrong before.

Thanks everyone. I do believe this to be a food related or a utility jar. I'm thinking possibly 1850s or a little earlier. I'm looking forward to the weekend so I can really dig in.
