Beautiful Civil War era Cathedral Pickle bottle

Woodland Detectors · Nov 2, 2011

We had a blast at the Relic Rescue Civil War dig last week in Culpeper VA. I met some really nice folks, and dug some nice relics. The highlight of the trip was a hut dig wit David Wellingham, where we dug the beautiful Cathedral pickle bottle fully intact. We had a film crew filming which can be seen soon of the recovery. Great hunt!
Thanks for looking!

Very Nice Cathedral Pickle Mike, looks like y'all had a good time. I'm just getting back from South Carolina for a week without internet so I'm seeing it for the first

time. Dave Willingham is a terrific hut digger and it looks like y'all did well :occasion14:

Congrats and that glass made the trip all worth it, not to mention a

beautiful lock plate :icon_thumleft:
