I must admit I’m getting into this old bottle addiction. I put on my 6” coil to sift out this certain spot I found a IH cent the other day. It’s taken me some getting use to this 6” coil because I’m the guy that probably walks a mile or 2 when detecting. I managed to pullout a 1926 wheat after 3 hours, so I decided to take to the creek. I brought the detector but I was more there for bottles or just observing. Got my second jumbo marble, my 2nd small blue bottle, a coin purse, something brass with gold guilt and a toy truck. It’s funny how you’ve seen something time and time again so you’ve seen the game, now you’re into bottles and you’re seeing the game within the game.

Way to go brother, looks like you're onto something by hunting the creek, Congrats on ya finds and the marbles and your blue bottle are super nice!!!

The blue bottle is nice along with the other finds.Congrats :icon_thumleft:
 

Better watch it, those old bottles will hook you bad before you know it!
 

Bottles and marbles can be an addiction of their own Truth, and with those Cobalt Blue's you are well on your way. I was detecting a field a few years back, and started to find so many bottles ( 63 total ) that I set my metal detector down and just started picking them up. There had been a recent barn tear down and I got in there before the farmers tractors. They do make for a great display. Congrats on some nice finds, and I'd get back to that creek soon.
