My coolest bottle found metal detecting!

[Casey13]

Good afternoon everyone!
Yesterday after work I spent a couple hours detecting the early 1900s homesite that I've hunted alot. I didn't get any good metal finds but while digging signals I found a few cool glass pieces. First one found was a broken glass stopper and then a neat old amber poison bottle. The find that got me so excited was the tiny medicine bottle that says Roy N. Chelf Brooksville Florida Prescription Pharmacist. I live just outside of Brooksville and to find something that came from his drug store in the early 1900s is so cool!!

Thanks for looking everyone!

Casey the poison bottle is cool but my favorite is the Brooksville medicine bottle. Very nice find! Congratulations

Thank you Florida Finder! I agree, it's such a nice find!

Awesome bottles. I was out detecting a couple years ago and found some old bottles. From then on I've been addicted. If I ain't detecting I'm hunting for bottles. If I ain't hunting for bottles I'm somewhere buying a new bottle for collection.

Thank you!! I completely know what you mean. After I found those 2 bottles, I spent the last hour just digging for more complete bottles lol.

a lot of folks would rather find the poison, but I am a succor for those embossed locals. Keep poking around there and I bet there is at least one more identical one

You were exactly right villagenut!! This past Wednesday on lunch I was digging and found another almost identical bottle lol!

Great to find a local bottle! I'm still chasing one from my town. Most are from the larger city across the river. There was a local dairy that has bottles but my friend has only found parts of them. Them a neighbor poking around one of his sites found the only whole one 🤬 he's still a little sour about that.. think his parents live next to the dairy site

Thank you so much!! I'm sure you will find one soon! I never thought I would have found one whole lol. Ah man, I can't believe a neighbor found the only whole one so far. That would bug me lol
