    Glad to find the new channel! I've been finding tons of broken glass a few bottles , broken plates ect on my property. Our home used to be a post office and general store in 1900ish sometime and a few different buildings around that fell. Tons of burnt stuff, you don't have to dig deep either. It's fun seeing you find whole pieces of things.

    You are the best bottle ( artifact) digger out there. Very articulate, use with a trowel like true archeologists. All these other guys using backhoes, pitchforks and shovels the way they do. You can hear the scraping of the glass. Makes you wonder how many they break VS. save. A lot more than you. You've got it down to an art. Keep up the good work.

    At 29:46, it may well be a mustach cup, but because the well with the holes appears to be deeper, it may also be a one cup pitcher with a tea/teabag strainer. It's hard to tell from picture how deep the straining section is.

Glad this one popped up in my feed today and happy to see you back. I really enjoy your videos and used to be a collector of old bottles 40 years ago. Don't do it as much as I used to, but I really enjoy watching you get excited about big finds and I am so glad someone still enjoys finding old bottles! You're very knowledgeable about them and I've learned a lot!! Wishing you the best!!
