Lots of nice finds as usual, cool stuff ! Do you carry your finds around all day or make a few trips back to the car/truck ? (just curious)

Just another day in the neighborhood

I've never commented on your posts, but I've admired the finds. You did very well. To swing a detector that long on one day takes fortitude. I wouldn't be able to use my right hand after that.

Nice silver and there's so many things to drool over again.
What's the glass bottle?
I'm sure there might be a little ribbing on the Big bronze in the foot print.
( I love finding things around others foot prints.)

Carry it all day, as putting it in my bicycle is not an option that includes all the Lead not pictured.

Have to keep swapping arms (old detecting injury) My record is 17.5 hours in 2 days, I just work through the pain, probably bad for me

I thought others may help on that. I'm guessing its a medicine type cork top, as it has a small hole through the cork & a screw top lid. I have found the tops before but never knew what they attached to until now.

I've dug a few tops over the years, good to see the whole bottle connected.
