Bottles, bottles & more bottles.

[Sulpfiction]

While detecting a construction site I stumbled across an old privy. I've never really been into bottle hunting, but man was this exciting. Found well over 100 really cool bottles. Have no idea if any are worth anything, but it doesn't even matter. The rush of finding them was enough payoff for me. This is why I love this hobby. U just NEVER know what's gonna be in that next hole.

You found a lot! You can get each one identified here in the bottle and glass section. Some really good experts. Like the ink wells.

Must not have been a drinker, cause I seen no beer or whiskey bottles...but lots of sauces though

Next time sift the dirt or detect it as you dig it out. watch for marbles.

Not a bottle person either but you've got some nice looking glass there. Good finds.

Honestly I think I have more fun bottle digging it have only got to dig one privy but man it's so cool pulling intact bottles out as you go. It's a lot of work but really fun.

Hello Sulpfiction. WOW NICE HAUL! I don't bottles real often but they are always welcome especially when they come in bunches like that. Good luck. C9

You've got an instant collection and a nice one too...congrats.

Nice finds. Looks like you hit a bunch of 1890-1910 era or so bottles. Typically very interesting . From a value perspective not worth a lot.

Real nice surprise!

[treblehunter]

Very cool, I also like the inkwells along with all the other ones too!

 

[RelicDude]

Very nice finds. You should post this down in the bottle forum. Those guys would love to see them.

Very cool! Would love to stumble into a trove like that myself, usually happy with the one or two at a time I find occasionally. Nice work!

What a lucky guy you are,a collection started,looks like you have some nice ones there.

I do not have any knowledge of age or value of bottles. I do however have an appreciation for their aesthetics and visual appeal. That group, when cleaned and displayed nicely will be beautiful. Congratulations.
