Quick Hunt Yesterday

[oldmxrat]

Been cooped up in the house this week because of the mountain behind my house is on fire and was in a "get ready" evac zone. Was getting cabin fever and just wanted to get out, but close to home, so I went poking around an old site less than a mile from the house.
Was able to get this old needle container piece with the detector and I eyeballed the bottom of the bottle which was just poking above the ground a little bit.

It fluoresces under UV light.

Nice bottle and intact...the needle case is really nice, you don't find those everyday. Dumb question but what created the green glow in the bottle...Hopefully nothing radioactive

Very cool. Stuff used to be made so much better. Even the containers it came in!

The glow in the bottle is likely from manganese dioxide, the stuff in old glass that makes it turn purple. If this bottle had been exposed to sunlight instead of buried it would be purple.

Yippee on the etui!
