I found this bottle while metal detecting in northern WV. Not sure of the age, but I believe it's old. Hope you enjoy!!

Nice find! The larger these bottles, the less likely they are to survive intact.

Here's my (much smaller) example:

Wow. I saw you're thread last night when you first posted and didn't include the photo. Wasn't expecting to see a bottle this old. Terrific find you got there and i would definitely go back. Thanks for sharing

Thanks everyone! This is what I enjoy most about this site. There is so much knowledge here that when you do run across something that you are unfamiliar with, not only do you find out what it is, you get a short history lesson with it. Thanks again!!

12 sides...wow...a real beauty.

Been a month since I found my last glass...... I'm going through withdrawals....

I did find a 1785 reale and another silver I have not identified yet ay my coin hole yesterday so I shouldn't complain..

Have a good day out there people!
