We are all in this coronavirus pandemic together and will get through it by God's strength and be stronger than ever. It's a fight that we will win,so dont get discouraged. Please take all necessary precautions to stay safe. We will keep digging and posting videos to watch as long as we can. Keep the comments coming and we will try to get caught up as soon as we can. We love all of you and look forward to meeting as many of you as we can....God bless you!
You guys are awesome Dave! Take your time and take care of family first bud, we understand. Outstanding dig and video, I've watched your Mickeljohn moment a few times lol....hey check UA-cam videos to fix your car, I've done a lot of work on mine, only because other people took the time to make blessed videos on how to fix it. Saved me a a lot of $$$$. God Bless
Congrats on that jackpot find & that dark puff one..& all others...thanks for tsharing with us..hope you had a good Thanksgiving ....Take care ..🖐️from India
I had to watch this again, it just makes me smile so much! 50 years of digging for bottles earned you the blessings. Some people may never find one but will watch this and know when they hit one of the holy grail bottles, the surprise and joy is so worth it & it may take them 50 years just never give up!
I am addicted to your videos! I don’t even know how I found you but I am so happy I did! I am learning so much about bottles and glass. You both are awesome! Keep digging and sharing your story! 🙏🏼🤗♥️
Mr. Rodgers of bottle digging you and shelly are great people and hearing dave talk like x mas day 5 years old with green New Orleans medicine. Everyone is happy for you. And congrats on the new property you bought and can now dig. God is good God is great.
Since this coronavirus....I been finding all kinds of channels thrifts store buying...garage sales ..dumpster divers... antique finds ... storage bins buying....and today I find you ...and I really wasn't looking for any of this....but I love it all....my bathroom has many old bottles ...God has made me happy by finding all these channels I love antiques and depression glass....I just love old things...I often asked God why I love old things....
Dave, you're not crowing, you're sharing your excitement!!! New Orleans like another planet, when you live in Wash. State! My goodness, I would have been doing a war dance with every bottle I dug!! Soooo interesting, the wonderful history, I fully share your enthusiasm. Glass gold!! Thanks you two, great fun, best, Carol
Thanks so much Carol. We are so glad you could share it with us and were appreciative of your nice comments. You could tell how excited we were....boy howdy! I did a hootnanny dance but quickly got the bottle to our van safely wrapped up. We love the history and the adventure of discovery....ya just never know what may be buried just waiting to be rescued and brought to light. God bless your family and you Carol....please stay safe
I'm thrilled for you all! Shelley is a complete angel! It's a pleasure to watch two people so kind and loving toward each other find such a valuable treasure! Sell that thing and go on a nice cruise or island getaway with your family! Create memories! PS. I am from Woodbury NJ (pretty small town in South jersey) it was so cool to see a bottle from my hometown. ;)
Thank you for your wonderful message. We may do just that and take a trip or something while we still can. There are so many starving and hurting people though who we would love to help....we are just praying for the Lord to guide us. Stay safe and God bless you...
David Beeler Please stay away from Cruise Liners....Just see what is going on at the moment. They are loaded with bacteria and viruses......😱🤮Get yourself a nice vehicle with a little trailer you can sleep in. So you and your wife can travel through the States looking for more bottles!! That is what I would do...LoL😂 But for each their own...! Good luck you two wonderful people...God Bless🙏🏼🍀♥️👋🏼🇨🇦
I just want to say i love your life this is my first time watching you both digging an hunting bottles you both haveing so much fun im excited to see.your 23000 bottle me an my dad use to go out an dig for old bottles. Im so glad i found youboth i can only dream of the fun you both having dad passed few years back he was my digging up bottles buddy keep hunting god bless you both always smile..
It is really neat to see two people who enjoy the same hobbies. I was never blessed with a partner that liked to venture out and find neat stuff. My thing was fossils. But I was down to dig for anything. But I had to do it alone. Take a few minutes to appreciate each other. I praise you both for (finding each other ) the GREATEST find ever.!!! MAY the. LORD. Keep you blessed !!
Great to see you guys thanking God for what you find. I don't talk as much about my faith in my videos but try to pray before each dig. It's just a blessing to be healthy enough to get out and dig, all the good finds are just a bonus!
That pontiled med bottle you guys got is a find of a life time. Your channel is the greatest bottle digging channel out their. Keep on posting and stay safe.
Dave, I Love You both you and Shelly and Thank our Father in the name of Christ Jesus for Blessing You and Yours. Giving, Caring Hearts and an Attitude of Gratitude is something you have by the bucketloads. You and your family are always in my prayers.
Wowsers!!! Digger Dave you can sqawk away all you want on that one...and those blue ones you give to your son,that's amazing that you guys do that for him...and his/your family ☺️🙏🙏🙏live your God thanking ways,it's a blessing to to be able to watch you guys get all down in there and dirty🤪 . I'm from Canada,I've thought about digging in certain spots before,but never would i ever have thought to look in a spot where our outhouses used to sit.😷💩 Plus even with that knowledge,I look at those items you dig out of the dumps and privies and couldn't imagine my ancestors throwing away anything that ain't broke,or not reusing them and I had older cousin's that would cut off the tops of bottles and have glasses, or take a torch to the side of a stubby beer bottle and then with another bottle push it into the side of the heated bottle and make an indentation... Voilà ashtrays...😊 Just canning purposes alone I don't get it,seems like alot of people in your area had more money than they knew what to do with,backbone the day. And I thought that was a fairly knew thing in our world , but I grew up with parents who went through the depression,and their ways held fast,and now I find myself cringing at the waist I see in our world. Well God bless you all,and thanks for your incouragement to continue to pray for our world.🙏🙏🙏
Hi Brandon....Paul and I were just in Pekin the other day but didnt do any digging. We were just scouting around. Thanks for watching. We hope you can find a good place to dig.. Be careful, as a lot of the deeper holes in your river area are sandy soil. Keep in touch....we will help you all we can. God bless your family and you
Congrats on the awesome bottle! The good lord sure blessed you on that dig! You two sure make a great team and I love how grateful you are for everything. That is refreshing to see. Stay safe and keep those bottle coming!
Hi Paul....we sure dont feel like we deserve to find anything great, but just thank God when it happens. Thanks for your kind words. We hope everyone is staying safe, and we pray for those who are sick with this killer virus. My heart goes out to those who are suffering......thanks for your encouragement. See ya in the next video coming in a couple days...
Like 410 ....you know you did Great. My best Pennsylvania finds have been Unlisted Historical Flasks and I had to sell them to pay the bills. I've been digging for over 40 years of my 50+ years of life. I am the boy on the 70s from PBS Venture North " History in a Bottle" TV program. Minnesota.
Nice to hear from you my fellow digger....that is awesome to hear of some of your finds! Wow....keep digging and we hope to stay in touch. Thanks for watching and for your comments. Stay safe...
Yea, the cobalt puff got kind of lost in the whirlwind there, but it was a rare find too! You know the great thing about digging bottles is that its easy to just go back to digging ordinary common bottles and be totally thrilled. Paul and I dug a couple days ago and just had great fun (although we did dig a really cool indian bottle). Its honestly more about the excitement of the dig ....the thrill of the hunt! You know how it is. Thanks so much for watching and for the great comments....stay safe
Absolutely amazing dig guy 57 years of bottle digging you deserve it such a beautiful bottle as well congrats to you both keep it in a safe place guys so the wrong hands don’t get ahold of it thanks for shearing as always enjoyed watching 👍👍👍👍👍⛏⛏🎊🎉
Yea I'm getting old and fat so my digging days may be numbered...I'm just thankful Shelley and I can still get out and share such adventures. I hope you have a wonderful week and make some fantastic find mate! Thanks so much for watching
Wow...that's what's great about our hobbies. Whether it be bottle digging, relic hunting, hunting Native American artifacts. When you start your hunt you just never know what treasure you might come home with that day. Congrats to you both and Dave after 50+ years of digging you deserve that one. I could tell when you first saw it, it was a good one by your reaction. Well done!
WOW that one bottle is a great find and I am glad you and Shelly found it, all of the other bottles are really good finds. Thank you and Shelly for your video.
Thanks so much. We are so thankful to have had such a good dig. It comes at a much needed time too, so the Lord knows our needs and always provides. We hope you have a good week....keep safe and God bless you
Hi Dave and Shelly. In London ,England, there is a Mudlarker who cuts and polishes embossed bottles that he often finds on the river Thames foreshore which he then sells on Etsy. I think his video channel is called luck in the muck and his name is Si. I just thought that you might like to take a look !! Greetings from Wolverhampton in The West Midlands. xxxxxxxx
Congratulations guys!!! When one collects old objects it's always a thrill to find something of value that most folks will never find. Great haul on this trip.
Nicest holes I have ever seen anyone dig in. Beautiful recoveries, and not in over your heads. Congratulations on the Mickeljon. 1st one I have ever seen.
Thanks so much for your kind words. We are just so thankful to God and still just letting it soak in....haha. Although we may never find anything so valuable, every dig is a new adventure with thrills and fun finds. We hope you have a wonderful weekend.....God bless you and be safe
Hey congratulations on your awesome find! We are so thankful for a once in a lifetime find....but now excited to just be finding whatever comes our way. Thanks for your nice message....good luck in your digs. Please stay safe and have fun..
Hi Christina.....we are so thankful for you watching and taking time to drop us a note. We may keep the bottle awhile, but we can put that kind of money to some good use to help others, including family and friends. That's why the Lord let us find that bottle I'm sure. God bless you.....see ya in the next video
I'm so happy for your treasures that you dug! I lived in New Orleans for several years in the 90s. The humidity is unbearable. And it's not even the hottest season yet. The bugs are always horrible. Bless you for digging and sharing your adventures with us. We love your videos, especially now when we are shut in trying to stay safe and healthy.
Hi Noel...were so glad you watched our video and hope you can stay safe during this virus outbreak. New Orleans is a unique city for sure, but I sure struggle with the heat & humidity...haha. We appreciate your nice comments. It was truly a thrill for us to have such a nice dig. God bless you
Hi Lorisue....we will start saving some broken colored emb bottles for you. Thanks for watching and for your nice comments. We are staying safe and hope your family and you are too. God bless you
David Beeler I am an artist and only use old broken glass. I just love when the piece is made and you can read some of the letters and words. I am not very far from you. We will have to meet up when we are all safe! I thank you for your kind words and for collecting the glass for me. I am safe and will remain that way. I live alone in the woods, I am old schooled in the way I can live on next to nothing. I have just had to dust the cob webs off that part of my brain. I worry for my daughter whom lives in Cancun Mexico and my son whom is in the Navy, as they worry for me for I lost my husband 7 months ago, as well as being a cancer survivor. I have my guns loaded and several friends that will bring me anything I need. I am a lucky lady! I send my best for you and your family in hope you all stay well! Thank you again!!!
Ahoy there Bottle Hawk....thank you so much for your nice comments. Yea, I think I will quit digging now while I'm ahead....(just kidding) haha. Its really all about the adventure and thrill of the hunt which is what drives all of us I guess. We may never find another bottle of that magnitude, but every dig is exciting because of the history and thrill of finding new buried treasures. You know how it is....I cant wait to get back out there on the next dig! God bless you my friend...stay safe from this virus
@@diggerdaveshovelinshelleyb8057 Sadly my privy days are over due to physical limitations. However, I'm still beating the bushes, beaches and old farm sites for bottles and relics. It's so true, once you're bitten by the bug there is very little chance you'll stop doing it. Take care and you all stay safe.
Hi Jason....we appreciate your wife and you watching. We are not the most entertaining people to watch, but we sure have fun and hope we can share a little of it with you. Stay tuned for another nice dig coming in the next day or two....stay safe
Gee whiz, Dave and Shelley, now that was amazing! What a dig! I was just as excited as you were when you pulled out some of that stuff. Very rare dig and you guys deserve it more than anybody. Thanks so much for taking me along.
Aw thanks so much my friend. We sure never expect to find something of that magnitude and probably never will again...but God is so good isnt He? We work hard at it, but sure dont feel at all like we deserve anything special....it is all worth it just getting to dig and share adventures together...and share them with nice friends like YOU. God bless you....stay safe
Also love your marbles nothing more better in world to be digging an find marbles an u be amazed how much a anteak marble collector will pay for that right anteake marble there looking for just thought i share it loved your video keep digging u2 your awsome yeah big smiles an god bless youboth always an all your loved ones to.
Hi Carter....we thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to send us a nice comment. We hope you find some great treasure also real soon. Sometimes we get discouraged and dont find much worth crowing about...but if you keep at it and dont give up, ya just never know what might happen. Were trying to work on getting better videos, but its hard to teach an old dog new tricks..haha. Stay safe Carter....God bless
Got my attention...I do what you do...ive spent hours digging through 100 year old or 80 years at least personal and community dumps... Very COOL .I wanted to say those bottles with the tops broken off would make good water glasses,.I just need to get one of those bottle cutters thy used to sell.
Omg thank you both, I have enjoyedyour video very much, I’m also a die hard bottle, fossil, crystal digger. You truly hit the honey hole of all honey holes, congratulations, thank you for letting me live vicariously though you in this quarantine
Incredible find, guys! Number 12 on the list of the 25 most desired pontil medicines!! I've bought from you over the years - always great to work with. As a digger & collector, I'm so happy for you!
Hi Kim....thanks for sharing with us. We will try to show more of the little smalls and doodads....many of which end up in our pockets or bottom of a bucket or box, only to be rescued days or weeks later. Thanks for the reminder....we'll see what we can do. God bless you and keep you safe
Dave I'm so happy for you on the olored pontil med bottle. I've heard you speak of this med before. Congrats you are truly blessed. I love it when you dig in New Orleans, you always do well. Take care and be safe you two.
First time viewer but I was interested because I dug bottles and whatever I could find when I was kid and it kinda stays with you . I still collect bottles I like and have a few old patent medicine and liquor embossed that I have found or purchased ..really enjoyed the video . God bless
Started watching yall few days ago its amazing doing this and what got my attention was thanks to our Lord on your digs .I'm paralyzed myself so want be digging but this show gave me a heads up on what to look out for here in the Carolinas.....Michael
Hey thanks for the encouraging words. You are always a loyal supporter and we are so thankful. We may never have another dig like that, but we are just so thrilled every chance we get to be alive another day and just enjoy being out and about. God bless you and keep you safe
What a awesome haul! Can’t get over all the bottles you found! I just love how God blesses us when we least expect it. Our God is an awesome God. Truly, congratulations on the rare, beautiful bottle you all found. No wonder you were so nervous. Thank you for bringing us on all your digging adventures. God bless, and can’t wait for the next adventure! Tom.
Hi Tom...thanks so much brother. The Lord truly does amazing things often when we least expect them; you are sure right there. God is absolutely awesome! We are praying for you brother and know that He will answer for His glory. We appreciate you watching and for such nice comments. That was our once in a lifetime find...now its your turn Tom! Be safe..
Thanks so much for watching and for your support. Rocks is a good guy.....tell him thanks. We hope to do a dig with him one of these days. God bless you
You betcha! You two got me wondering what kind of treasures might be buried near where I live!! I’m just really happy for you both. Market is going to be down for a while so maybe hold on to that one for a little while. I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you that you’ll find a few more👍🏻👍🏻
We sure are glad you could share it with us Tony. Thanks for your kind words. We are just so thankful and still just kind of in disbelief...haha. We cant wait til the next adventure either......Paul and I dug a couple days ago, so we'll try to get that video out in a couple days after we get everything washed up......we hope you are staying strong and safe during this virus epidemic. God be with you
WOW Dave & Shelley......You should act a little cocky after digging that bottle....LOL. That is amazing. I think I would have to sell that as well if I dug it. That is just awesome.....CONGRATS
I love this video. I am a lover of old bottles myself. I dont have but a old aspirin and Budweiser bottle. Great finds and I would love to have any of them.😍😍😍😍🥰
Greetings and blessings from the UK , my wife Jane and myself thought wow what a great tip and some amazing finds.keep going my collection is stoneware transfer printed ginger beers. Love your faith !
Thanks Mark....so glad to get your nice comments. We'll try to dig you up a rare transfer printed ginger beer....but almost all of ours are unembossed. God bless you brother!
you dug some really awesome bottles there i have some in my cellar but probably nothing as old as the ones you was getting but you have peaked my interest to the point that i'm going out this summer and see what i can find
Well, you and Miss Shelley certainly had a wonderful dig! Congratulations on finding the bottle of a lifetime! God is so good!!! You saved lots of beautiful old glass, and I feel privileged to have been able to watch. God bless y'all in all your endeavors, and please stay healthy and safe!😊💖
Thanks for watching and for taking time to comment. It was a fun. Now its YOUR turn to find a treasure....we hope you have a wonderful week. God bless and stay safe
Thanks so much Victoria....it was sure fun and we are just still not hardly believing that the Lord blessed with such a nice findl! Glad you could come along with us.....stay tuned for the next dig coming in a day or two....Paul and I dug an indian!....haha. God be with you and keep you safe and strong!
Hey Connie....thanks so much for your encouragement. We never expect to find a treasure like that, which I guess reveals our lack of faith. We ask God to bless...and then are surprised when He answers our prayers..haha. God is so awesome in spite of all our failures and sin. Thank you for watching.....have a blessed day and please stay safe from this Coronavirus
Very cool Hunt. What great finds . All of them were awesome. Congrats to you all , it could not have happened to a nicer couple. Thx for sharing that great moment.Take care and as allways , good luck on your next hunt.
Holy crap you guys sure know how to dig a hole. Amazing bottles, plus you're both bad ass, as tired as you were, you had the perseverance to keep working it. Just congrats on the best bottle ever of your life. You and other UA-camrs have got me going now and I've just got permission to investigate my property which is about 120 years old. Not exactly sure what I'm looking for but I've got some ideas. Suggestions are welcome. Will keep you posted. Keep the vids coming, looking forward to the next one you talked about. Luv from Asheville
Hi Heide....thanks so much for your kind words and support. We hope you can locate a good dig site there on your property. If you ever need a hand let us know as we would love to come help! We will probably never find another bottle like that Mickeljohn Remedy, but you know, its just as thrilling every time we get to dig because its the excitement of the hunt! Even the smallest of things are just so enjoyable to find. We never get disappointed because its all in the outlook. God is just so good just to give us another day to breathe and live and enjoy life to the fullest! May God bless your family and you....stay safe and stay in touch...

A couple who digs together stays together. Well done from Oz. Cheers Gutshot
I sometimes use a stick when working the dirt away from close to the bottle to avoid scratches.
Great to see you guys thanking God for what you find. I don't talk as much about my faith in my videos but try to pray before each dig. It's just a blessing to be healthy enough to get out and dig, all the good finds are just a bonus!
I watched this video when you guys 1st posted. Had to watch it again. AMAZING!

My wife and kids love to bottle dig too! We are in Pekin. You guys find some amazing bottles and relics! I dream of finding old bottles like you guys!

Absolutely amazing dig guy 57 years of bottle digging you deserve it such a beautiful bottle as well congrats to you both keep it in a safe place guys so the wrong hands don’t get ahold of it thanks for shearing as always enjoyed watching 👍👍👍👍👍⛏⛏🎊🎉
Yea I'm getting old and fat so my digging days may be numbered...I'm just thankful Shelley and I can still get out and share such adventures. I hope you have a wonderful week and make some fantastic find mate! Thanks so much for watching
What a great find. Love these videos
Wow...that's what's great about our hobbies. Whether it be bottle digging, relic hunting, hunting Native American artifacts. When you start your hunt you just never know what treasure you might come home with that day. Congrats to you both and Dave after 50+ years of digging you deserve that one. I could tell when you first saw it, it was a good one by your reaction. Well done!
WOW that one bottle is a great find and I am glad you and Shelly found it, all of the other bottles are really good finds. Thank you and Shelly for your video.
Thanks so much. We are so thankful to have had such a good dig. It comes at a much needed time too, so the Lord knows our needs and always provides. We hope you have a good week....keep safe and God bless you
Absolutely one of the best digs I’ve seen..your love of God proves itself..
Hi Dave and Shelly. In London ,England, there is a Mudlarker who cuts and polishes embossed bottles that he often finds on the river Thames foreshore which he then sells on Etsy. I think his video channel is called luck in the muck and his name is Si. I just thought that you might like to take a look !! Greetings from Wolverhampton in The West Midlands. xxxxxxxx
Congratulations guys!!! When one collects old objects it's always a thrill to find something of value that most folks will never find. Great haul on this trip.
Nicest holes I have ever seen anyone dig in. Beautiful recoveries, and not in over your heads. Congratulations on the Mickeljon. 1st one I have ever seen.
Thanks so much for your kind words. We are just so thankful to God and still just letting it soak in....haha. Although we may never find anything so valuable, every dig is a new adventure with thrills and fun finds. We hope you have a wonderful weekend.....God bless you and be safe
WOW so many beautiful bottles!! I found a $500 bottle earlier this year! not an much as yours!! Love the infant food!! thanks for sharing!:)
Hey congratulations on your awesome find! We are so thankful for a once in a lifetime find....but now excited to just be finding whatever comes our way. Thanks for your nice message....good luck in your digs. Please stay safe and have fun..
Love the olive green on that treasure bottle . Absolutely beautiful .
Hi Christina.....we are so thankful for you watching and taking time to drop us a note. We may keep the bottle awhile, but we can put that kind of money to some good use to help others, including family and friends. That's why the Lord let us find that bottle I'm sure. God bless you.....see ya in the next video
Congratulations on the awesome find.
Dave, that is a wonderful bottle, I am so happy for you guys ! You guys deserve it for sure. Thanks for what you do . Bryan Kitchen / Houston Texas
Amazing - what a great adventure - thanks for taking us with you!
Wow...just wow....you guys are so much fun to watch. During these crazy times, it’s nice to watch you guys be so blessed and share your digs with us.
I'm so happy for your treasures that you dug! I lived in New Orleans for several years in the 90s. The humidity is unbearable. And it's not even the hottest season yet. The bugs are always horrible. Bless you for digging and sharing your adventures with us. We love your videos, especially now when we are shut in trying to stay safe and healthy.
Hi Noel...were so glad you watched our video and hope you can stay safe during this virus outbreak. New Orleans is a unique city for sure, but I sure struggle with the heat & humidity...haha. We appreciate your nice comments. It was truly a thrill for us to have such a nice dig. God bless you
I want the broken colored embossed bottles! One mans junk is another mans treasure! Great time with ya. Hope your staying safe and healthy!
Hi Lorisue....we will start saving some broken colored emb bottles for you. Thanks for watching and for your nice comments. We are staying safe and hope your family and you are too. God bless you
David Beeler I am an artist and only use old broken glass. I just love when the piece is made and you can read some of the letters and words. I am not very far from you. We will have to meet up when we are all safe! I thank you for your kind words and for collecting the glass for me. I am safe and will remain that way. I live alone in the woods, I am old schooled in the way I can live on next to nothing. I have just had to dust the cob webs off that part of my brain. I worry for my daughter whom lives in Cancun Mexico and my son whom is in the Navy, as they worry for me for I lost my husband 7 months ago, as well as being a cancer survivor. I have my guns loaded and several friends that will bring me anything I need. I am a lucky lady! I send my best for you and your family in hope you all stay well! Thank you again!!!
Awesome dig, folks. Came up with some real beauties there and I'm happy you got what you've been looking for.
Ahoy there Bottle Hawk....thank you so much for your nice comments. Yea, I think I will quit digging now while I'm ahead....(just kidding) haha. Its really all about the adventure and thrill of the hunt which is what drives all of us I guess. We may never find another bottle of that magnitude, but every dig is exciting because of the history and thrill of finding new buried treasures. You know how it is....I cant wait to get back out there on the next dig! God bless you my friend...stay safe from this virus
@@diggerdaveshovelinshelleyb8057 Sadly my privy days are over due to physical limitations. However, I'm still beating the bushes, beaches and old farm sites for bottles and relics. It's so true, once you're bitten by the bug there is very little chance you'll stop doing it. Take care and you all stay safe.
I would hold my breath putting that 23,000 dollar bottle on the window sill lol, wow great find, God is so good.
Congratulations guy's!!!!! Me and my wife are so excited for you!! God bless can't wait to see more!
Hi Jason....we appreciate your wife and you watching. We are not the most entertaining people to watch, but we sure have fun and hope we can share a little of it with you. Stay tuned for another nice dig coming in the next day or two....stay safe
Gee whiz, Dave and Shelley, now that was amazing! What a dig! I was just as excited as you were when you pulled out some of that stuff. Very rare dig and you guys deserve it more than anybody. Thanks so much for taking me along.
Aw thanks so much my friend. We sure never expect to find something of that magnitude and probably never will again...but God is so good isnt He? We work hard at it, but sure dont feel at all like we deserve anything special....it is all worth it just getting to dig and share adventures together...and share them with nice friends like YOU. God bless you....stay safe

Hi Carter....we thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to send us a nice comment. We hope you find some great treasure also real soon. Sometimes we get discouraged and dont find much worth crowing about...but if you keep at it and dont give up, ya just never know what might happen. Were trying to work on getting better videos, but its hard to teach an old dog new tricks..haha. Stay safe Carter....God bless

Awesome dig Dave, congrats on the rare one.👍

☮️💟
Got my attention...I do what you do...ive spent hours digging through 100 year old or 80 years at least personal and community dumps... Very COOL .I wanted to say those bottles with the tops broken off would make good water glasses,.I just need to get one of those bottle cutters thy used to sell.
Omg thank you both, I have enjoyedyour video very much, I’m also a die hard bottle, fossil, crystal digger. You truly hit the honey hole of all honey holes, congratulations, thank you for letting me live vicariously though you in this quarantine
Beautiful bottle guys…really, really nice!!!
Incredible find, guys! Number 12 on the list of the 25 most desired pontil medicines!! I've bought from you over the years - always great to work with. As a digger & collector, I'm so happy for you!
oh my gosh! Please show all the door dads you dig up. The marbles, beads and doll parts are great!
Hi Kim....thanks for sharing with us. We will try to show more of the little smalls and doodads....many of which end up in our pockets or bottom of a bucket or box, only to be rescued days or weeks later. Thanks for the reminder....we'll see what we can do. God bless you and keep you safe
Nothing but thumbs up to you both,great bottles love soda bottles and civil war era bottles...god bless from maine to florida
Dave I'm so happy for you on the olored pontil med bottle. I've heard you speak of this med before. Congrats you are truly blessed. I love it when you dig in New Orleans, you always do well. Take care and be safe you two.
First time viewer but I was interested because I dug bottles and whatever I could find when I was kid and it kinda stays with you . I still collect bottles I like and have a few old patent medicine and liquor embossed that I have found or purchased ..really enjoyed the video . God bless
Started watching yall few days ago its amazing doing this and what got my attention was thanks to our Lord on your digs .I'm paralyzed myself so want be digging but this show gave me a heads up on what to look out for here in the Carolinas.....Michael
Have you guys considered using a small pin pointer type metal detector in case there are any coins being missed in your digs?
You’ve gotta be careful with coins and anything of value at the time…it could be considered ‘treasure’ and there are laws about ownership…it’s stupid…
Congrats on the rare bottle. Sweet find. A lot of other great finds. ATB
Hey thanks for the encouraging words. You are always a loyal supporter and we are so thankful. We may never have another dig like that, but we are just so thrilled every chance we get to be alive another day and just enjoy being out and about. God bless you and keep you safe
@@diggerdaveshovelinshelleyb8057 God bless and stay safe as well. Keep great videos coming.
Shovelling Shelly is a good sport! Getting down and dirty! So nice when you come up all clean and polished!
What a awesome haul! Can’t get over all the bottles you found! I just love how God blesses us when we least expect it. Our God is an awesome God. Truly, congratulations on the rare, beautiful bottle you all found. No wonder you were so nervous. Thank you for bringing us on all your digging adventures. God bless, and can’t wait for the next adventure! Tom.
Hi Tom...thanks so much brother. The Lord truly does amazing things often when we least expect them; you are sure right there. God is absolutely awesome! We are praying for you brother and know that He will answer for His glory. We appreciate you watching and for such nice comments. That was our once in a lifetime find...now its your turn Tom! Be safe..
Congratulations !! R. Cousteau sent me! Loved seeing all your finds. Thx for the video 👍🏻
Thanks so much for watching and for your support. Rocks is a good guy.....tell him thanks. We hope to do a dig with him one of these days. God bless you
You betcha! You two got me wondering what kind of treasures might be buried near where I live!! I’m just really happy for you both. Market is going to be down for a while so maybe hold on to that one for a little while. I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you that you’ll find a few more👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome dig as usual, congratulations on your best bottle dug!! Can’t wait till the next adventure.
We sure are glad you could share it with us Tony. Thanks for your kind words. We are just so thankful and still just kind of in disbelief...haha. We cant wait til the next adventure either......Paul and I dug a couple days ago, so we'll try to get that video out in a couple days after we get everything washed up......we hope you are staying strong and safe during this virus epidemic. God be with you
WOW Dave & Shelley......You should act a little cocky after digging that bottle....LOL. That is amazing. I think I would have to sell that as well if I dug it. That is just awesome.....CONGRATS
I love this video. I am a lover of old bottles myself. I dont have but a old aspirin and Budweiser bottle. Great finds and I would love to have any of them.😍😍😍😍🥰

What an incredible haul. You are blessed, indeed. Congratulations!
Hey Connie....thanks so much for your encouragement. We never expect to find a treasure like that, which I guess reveals our lack of faith. We ask God to bless...and then are surprised when He answers our prayers..haha. God is so awesome in spite of all our failures and sin. Thank you for watching.....have a blessed day and please stay safe from this Coronavirus
Very cool Hunt. What great finds . All of them were awesome. Congrats to you all , it could not have happened to a nicer couple. Thx for sharing that great moment.Take care and as allways , good luck on your next hunt.
David and Shelley.. Yall have the coolest personalities I've come across! Very informative video! Love you guys!
Holy crap you guys sure know how to dig a hole. Amazing bottles, plus you're both bad ass, as tired as you were, you had the perseverance to keep working it. Just congrats on the best bottle ever of your life. You and other UA-camrs have got me going now and I've just got permission to investigate my property which is about 120 years old. Not exactly sure what I'm looking for but I've got some ideas. Suggestions are welcome. Will keep you posted. Keep the vids coming, looking forward to the next one you talked about. Luv from Asheville
Hi Heide....thanks so much for your kind words and support. We hope you can locate a good dig site there on your property. If you ever need a hand let us know as we would love to come help! We will probably never find another bottle like that Mickeljohn Remedy, but you know, its just as thrilling every time we get to dig because its the excitement of the hunt! Even the smallest of things are just so enjoyable to find. We never get disappointed because its all in the outlook. God is just so good just to give us another day to breathe and live and enjoy life to the fullest! May God bless your family and you....stay safe and stay in touch...
Dave send me an email address for you guys. hpforman1224@gmail.com.
