Out in the woods got lit up by some yellowjackets but atleast I got an oldie.

[treasurefiend]

Well today silvergurl went out to the woods again for a few hours hoping to find some silver. We walked all over the woods but I was the only one to find a coin today, its an awesome 1903 IH and its my 3rd on for the year. I also found an embossed Pepsi bottle that was still in tacked so I brought it home with me, anybody know about how old it is? It's the size of an embossed coke bottle. Sometime after I found the IH we were hunting along when I saw some yellowjackets exiting a big old log, they poured out faster than anything I have ever seen. Before I knew what was happening I was stung in my gut, I looked down while I was moving quickly away and saw that little bugger trying to sting me like 10 times (I lifted my shirt away from my skin but he kept sting it over and over). Then like a min later I felt another sting on my forearm (by this time we were a good 50-60 feet away and I thought we were out of range but nope that bugger stung me 4 or 5 times before I could brush him off). The stings weren't as bad as a bee sting but after like 5 min it hurt like a son of a gun!!!!

Thanks for lookin and happy huntin everybody.

Always thought that the 1940's Pepsi bottle was the coolest looking style. Great Indie as well.

WOW! Way to go on the indian head. That is coooool. You surely earned that one
Awesome find. BTW, if the metal detecting thing doesn't work out, you could always be a body double for Seth Rogan

 

[mamabear]

Yow! you paid big for those finds

Yipes! I hate those things! Years back I ran over a nest of them with the lawn mower. I didn't think I could move that fast!
Great on the Injun find and super bottle!

Very nice IH! Congrats!

I know this is gonna sound bad, but the dark side of me was kinda hoping for some video of TF running around the woods while being chased by Yellowjackets and Silvergurl laughing in the background! Now I know that's not how it happened but my dark side has got some imagination!

very nice job on the indian head penny and the Pepsi bottle!

 

[crazyjarhead]

Nice old pepsi bottle and IH. Too bad the yellow jackets wanted it more than you

 

[savant365]

Nice IH for sure, but I love that Pepsi bottle most. I think that may be worth a fair amount too.

 

[Ammo Dog]

Cool bottle.

[Moonshadow]

Awesome Pepsi bottle!! I've never seen one like that before. Nice IH too! Gosh, I HATE YELLOWJACKETS!!!! Little &$^(%$rds!!
Sorry about your run in with 'em. You'll never look at the bottle again and not remember the pain from the extraction!

nice injun and bottle keep your distance from bees

Nice find. Sorry you got stung. That was my first experience as a metal detector helper back in the 80's. My Brother in Law had a detector and I went along. All I remember is lifting an old beer cooler at a park and running like heck with wasps in pursuit. The oatmeal bath was not good either.
