Looks early 1900s to me.

Actually in the bottle world not that old; 1890-1910. You have some cool window bottles . The green one is a turn mold wine bottle. The others contained patent medicines or the like. They are very common and carry little monetary value . Keep digging I did for years before my back said enough. Have fun.

Oh OK, so the green ones aint as old as I thought.

No it is not. When I used to dig I once dug a late 1880’s hotel dump and dug literally hundreds of the green turn mold wines . Now if you find a cobalt blue one ...that’s a different story.
