I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE WHAT I FOUND! I went looking for clay pipes, coins, but found old bottles

- This is a hotspot when I discovered weeks ago. I returned with a small pick to hack away at the dirt. The area had been rich in clay pipes and other household items, but I never thought I would uncover a small bottle dump. This was my first try and bottle digging, and I can now see why bottle diggers love their hobby. It's so addictive.
a tip to get the cork out of the bottle is to put a plastic bag inside. turn the bottle upside down so the cork is near the head/hole and then inflate the bag. now pull the bag and it should pull the cork out with it.
Ah, thanks for the tip. I'll give it a try. I had just assumed the cork wouldn't come out, as it had expanded once leaving the bottle neck. Thanks again... Scott
One of the BEST videos I have seen on U'TUBE, it was just SO NICE to not hear one curse as well as being very interesting. Thanks for a great video.
Leapingcrane HTW Oh another Christian how wonderful, who cares about curse words. It’s also spelt UA-cam.
This guys great. But curses aren't bad, no one cares if someone goes "holy shit are you fricken kidding me" "damnnn what a find" that's natural, real behavior.
@Tony Wilkins I guess you've never found anything that excites you. Where you cant think. And emotions take over. I've had to edit out a lot of curses on my videos, because I try to not curse on video. But guess what. It's a word. We are here to watch someone's hobby, see what they find and feel their emotions. Not judge them on how they speak
@Tony Wilkins clearly metal detecting to you is a hobby. Not a passion
wow that's some tough soil conditions...I'm surprised that anything survived...great finds my friend
Hmmmm never know wht you'll find when you dig in the tavern's privy
what you though was an old battery, looks to me like a party popper.
phantomofoz
Thats what I thought. But is it made of plastic?
@@sarahstrong7174 it's definitely part of a old battery
@@bouncerslabrealnature9143 Thankyou for replying.
Those tins are obviously religious relics --------- They're "holey". (sorry) :)
u should of kept them all and sold at flea market, greedy? some bulldozer is going to plow over them and smash em
Some interesting find and facts about health and safety yuck snails in your ginger beer....BigfootDigger
Very enjoyable video. Thank you from Washington State USA.
I take it, 19th Century Great Britain didn't have Alcoholics Anonymous programs back then.
If I came across a find like this I'd be doing my happy dance for ages! I love old bottles and kitchenware.
The snail in the bottle! That takes me back to my first year at university, when I did one unfortunate year of law.
Here in the States I feel like subterranean trash collecting criminal.
Metal detecting? A less illegal hobby here would be serial killer.
Swing on mate! Happy digs.
hi Scott , great little bottle dump you've found , I reckon your right with the dates , I remember in the late sixties there was a big dump still in use at the other side of the road where the old road passes under the new road, it is now pasture.....Paul.
Just found your channel, love the vids keep it up, subscribed !
Guess you know that outhouses are good places to find bottles.
It was hot today and seeing all those bottles make me thirsty ... so here's to your good health ! And could it be that "the remains of an old battery" at 1:12 is in fact part of an old bicycle dynamo?
So I guess the Stevenson company was making Gingersnail soda.
its strange but i found a Bottle dump in West Yorkshire and yep there was a lot of this battery things around
I am in Utah we don't have old stuff. My daughter is a nurse in England she and I both love the History found in the UK! Keep up the good work!
LynnRC1957 there is old stuff not bottles or ceramics but fossils from sea creatures, that is old.
Looks like you found quite a few poison bottles $cha $$ching!!! Old friend of mine expert on bottles Dan Jarski. He lies in Oak Lawn, Il. Has a book out somewhere...
heres his phone number, state side I'll see if he's online, he knows everything about bottles! Tell him Renee Barcelona sent you. Daniel JarskiScience TeacherPhone: 708-342-5800Extension: x4534Department: Science
Was on 8 man bottle dig on Sunday Got blue durrmel bottke N king geo 6th scotch whiskySpring capped ! Good wee hunt m8 It is good fun ! Good luck And happy digging Subbed a while ago btw !
Yes, I can really see why bottle diggers really get into that aspect of the hobby. It's addictive.
Wow! The bottle bonanza! Another great video & always looking forward to the next! A balmy 107 degrees in California today. Send some of that cool weather our way, if you please. Good luck and happy hunting to you!
Lora Munday you in Fresno area, too? Miserable today.
I have dug up some bottles but I can't get them clean as yours can you help great video
How do you clean your bottles to get them so mint?.....I am dealing with loads of bottles that my husband finds here in Canada at old bottle dumps. Is there a special soap that you use? Or dishwasher first and a long brush for the insides...Thanks in advance for your reply..From a fan in Canada.🇨🇦
Hi and thanks for your comment. I use diluted brick and masonry cleaner from my local hardware store. I have a plastic bucket used only for this purpose, and when I have enough pieces, a place them in and add the water and cleaner. It has nitric acid in it, so you have to be careful. I let them soak for three days then use a pipecleaner on the smaller bottled or a bottle brush for the larger ones. Most of the gunk comes off relatively easily. I splashed some onto my aluminium sink once, and it went a strange colour. I dropped an old penny into a small test solution a few weeks back and it really ate away at the rust and corrosion to the point I could read the date. I only left in in overnight. Before that I was convinced the date had disappeared for good. This might not be recommended for coins, but so far it seems to work. Thanks again ... Scott
Looks like you found an old dump. They used to burn the trash to use it as filler, and the bottles and cans would not burn. The can's would rust. The trash ash was used as filler for road construction. Your digging into the roadside buildup used in supporting the roadway. With all the moisture in your dig area, your excavation could eroad the embankment and dammage the road supporting integrity.
Hi and thanks for your comment. There was some excavating done nearby, with deeper incursions into the roadside build-up, so the road's fine.
Love the vids ... and ..oh, do I love old bottles!!!! You found some great things! I'm jealous !! Just curious, Do you ever 'oops' and end up breaking a bottle??
Hi Mary. I think I've chipped one and smashed one. Overall, my record is pretty good though. As soon as I hear the glass 'ping' noise, I going into super safe mode. Thanks for your comment... Scott
looks like an old dump sight not from a road build
David Edwards
From New Jersey, I have a place I have been digging for about 5 yrs. now. I have around 200 bottles some back to the 1800's also a lot of old china from the old Atlantic City when the Mob ran things. Sad thing is I dug more broken one's than I have good one's. Love the video keep them coming.
Nice bottles, keep them, people think you are an alchemist.
excellent vid ,, great dump ,, wonder whats deeper ? I'm only allowed eyes only ware I go , the rabbits an badgers do the digging ..
I did dig deeper, but it seemed to be just some sort of red gravel.... Scott
Thanks for the video. One day you just might find something valuable.I once found $150 in an old candy tin.
Hi Deborah. Thanks for your comment. Some people dream of finding gold coins and rings etc. I think my dream is to find a tin of stuff, or a time capsule buried a century ago. Maybe one day....
Do people bury other bottles there so the next person can come along dig them up?
This time of year here in Oklahoma you get covered in chiggers and ticks doing that. I am forced to only metal detect in winter because they love my blood.
I found an old bottle dump in Shrewsbury by a brook, intact hot water bottles cod bottles, suddenly people got wind of it and dug till there was nothing left, I was about 13 and didn't really know what I'd found so took some to school to show the history teacher, yep he was there aswell
where abouts in shrewsbury did you find them there could well be more
So many channels just talk and talk too much. You get right to it and show what you are doing bottle after bottle. I really enjoy your adventures and treasures. Thank you.
Hi and thanks for your comment. I watch many UA-cam channels, and I try to avoid what I don't like about them. I think too much chit-chat can distract you from the purpose of the video - showing finds. ... Scott
Maybe where the rd workers wer a eating lunch
First one looks a little like the one that come with HP Sauce =)
If it Bottles your after you should go to a local supermarket that has recycling, usually they have large recycle bins full of bottles and you wont have to dig in the dirt.
But who wants new worthless modern age bottles? Antique bottles and stuff is found in old dumps dating back to the 1800s. Yesterday's trash is today's treasure. You obviously don't know anything about dump digging or you would have never made such a ridiculous comment.
nice finds, would be neat to see the old tea pot glued back togather
is this a dump site? still, really nice finds! anything else?
sorry ....linctus......about 1970....s
These are like the human history version of fossils
What did they called it? Bottled Ginger Snail?
Great video, pop over and see us
Love this channel and I love your accent
Hi Jessica and thanks for your kind comment. I try to tone down the accent and speak slower than the locals, as I'm aware 50% of my viewers are from the USA, and another 25% from outside of the UK. I'm glad you like the channel. The finds are genuine and the videos are not just crammed full of the good finds. I highlight the trash as well, but if you're interested in local history, even garbage tells a story. ... Scott
Wow I wish I could find just a few old bottles!
better than others...HP sauce.....
The bottle at 11:45 might be a whiskey flask.
Some very nice bottles! I love to find anything old,mainly Civil War,but I love finding any old bottle. Thanks for sharing, it was fun going along..hope you find lots more bottles,pipes and everything ! I hope you had a nice Father's Day.
Almost looked like my Sadler teapot.
I can't get any of these to pull up what's the deal
looked to me worth doing more digging there
We don't get those sort of dumps in Australia. I'm curious as to how you stumbled upon it? Do you think there may have been a house where the road is now? Is it worth swinging the detector around the area?Congrats on all your finds though, very well done! Regards. Chris.
Hi Chris and thanks for your comment. I'm so interested in the amount of history over here because I was brought up in Sydney. I had found bits and pieces between the grass and so I decided to dig. The initial detector check revealed nothing, and after the dig, and holes were filled in, I checked again over the disturbed ground and again nothing. As I dug, I noticed distinct layers of ash, soil, gravel etc. so I knew the spoil had been dumped here and wasn't naturally occurring. Thanks again .... Scott
Chris Barrett I have found interesting bottle dumps on properties out west. Problem is you really need to know people on old stations etc.
busy road.......more like a aeroplane runway.........
It appears you found a pharmacy dump.
Wow. Thank you for the video. Fun.
Just stumbled across your channel, nice bottle hunting there, nice knowledge also 👍
looks like a burn pit
Good vid . its great to find bottles on a hunt ,
anychance in going to one of your digs
Love your vid very enjoyable
Very Interesting! Keep it up!!
Bottles. You found bottles ffs.
Not much here but interesting!
Wow sooo many bottles
I love digging trash/bottle dumps. Sweet bunch of bottles and artifacts!
Looks like the area your digging is an out of city dump , is their a canal near by as they used to use canal barges to transport city waste. the ash is where the dump would heat up and catch fire underground from decomposition and pressure . I've dug a few of these sites around london.
Alf interesting
I bet the snail died with a smile on its face 😉
Great channel name.
...and yet, another bottle.
could sell them to a pharmacy.
nope - it is a potion bottle....
The farm i have, the owner burned the trash and some of the bottles made it.
,some years back Lost Treasure Magazine had a editorial on clay pipes using drill bit shanks to Date Clay Pipes,it said you could date an old house site with in 20to50 years
How do you display your bottles at home? Very nice finds.
Hi Brenda. Thanks for your comment. I have a couple of shelves in the kitchen which was meant to be a rustic type decor, but as time goes on, it's looking more like a bottle storage area. Too many of the smaller bottles are in a box, but one day they will see daylight again... one day.
its a perfume bottle...
hi there. nice vid. you look to be digging some of the same stuff I have bin digging at an old dump I found in Leeds. the earliest bottle I found there so far is 1920s . you should try dig deeper . you may find older things. really enjoyed watching. keep up the good work👍
Really appreciate the lack of cussing. Thanks
Thanks for your feedback. There's enough swearing on UA-cam, so I try not to add to it. I try to keep the videos family friendly! .... Scott
I like that 4 ounce bottle and the pipes! I've never found a pipe. Nice video I subscribed!
or very poisonous......
sweet digs man, good hunt
no its a medicine bottle
I know you probably hear this a lot my friend, but you should get a head mounted GoPro, 2 hands twice the work! lol
i love old poison bottles
nice bottle hunt there, where did you get your pick digging tool from?
Hi, I chose the pick because it was small enough to put into a backpack. I bought it from my local tool store. Thanks for your comment... Scott
Excellent video. It's captivating watching folks like yourself dig things up always hoping for the great historical and financially rewarding finds for you.. you're fantastic interesting folks doing necessary work really.
I too am jealous. Very nice finds for bottles and pipes. Hard to find bottle dumps where I am. Keep up the good work and videos!
It's a bottle sight what do you exspect to find 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Why so many bottle?
Great vid, thanks
What a fun find! I like the 2 brown wide bottles, Happy hunting.....D
i think its a party poper
Fine video work and the wrap-up put a fitting conclusion on a successful foray! Thanks for posting!
very cool
I would bet that lid you found goes to the tea pot. Did you notice it had a steam hole in it?
Hi Terry, once I gave it a good scrub it did indeed have a little hole. .... Scott
So much bottles!
01:18 Party popper
Lovely site, nice video, that ground was so compacted amazing how the bottles survived.
where was this ? i know of a spot that has millions of old bottles a lot of people hunt for old bottles here in good O'L Missouri. kind of looks like there was a fire are something hmm still very cool thanks for posting that
