Discovering A Hidden Treasure: Unearthing An Epic Antique Bottle Dump!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- This is my first trip to explore an old municipal dump that is loaded with bottles. The dump was in operation in the 1920s and all of the bottles date to about that time or earlier. I like to look for milk bottles and was lucky enough to find a few on this trip.
About Aquachigger:
I enjoy metal detecting for historical items like gold coins, relics, silver coins, and other buried treasures. I also metal detect for gold and silver nuggets and even meteorites. I like to make videos that promote my choice of lifestyle that includes outdoor adventure,
metal detecting, yapping, searching for river treasure, SCUBA diving, exploring abandoned places, hiking, caving, caring for animals and pets, and observing the things outdoors that often go unnoticed by most people who are not familiar with outdoor adventures and nature. I keep my RUclips "Aquachigger" channel family-friendly and hope you subscribe if you like my style.
BTW, you can also catch me here, / chiggsarmy ,but I may get a little edgier there. FB isn't a place for kids anyway...lol.

This is the first video I made at a new bottle dump I have been exploring. It was made a few months ago and I have been back a few times since then. I hope you enjoy the video!
Hey that's a Kool little blue bottle do you happen to know what came in it
Hey Chigg,? do you happen to know if they used stone cannon balls in the civil war
@headrot2443 Vicks probably. 100% did not ever use stone cannon balls during the American Civil War.
I didn't think so but somebody tried telling me that they did 😂
There is an old dump from before the 60's down the road from where I grew up. The only problem is, is that I remember the owner burning the pit at times. What are the chances of anything of value surviving? I've always wanted to go dig that site. I know my great grandparents used that dump. So being that I'm 61, there maybe be some cool things. Not sure when they started burning it.
Thanks, Beau! I just want to give a little support as we end another year. Looking forward to MOAR in 2024. New gloves, food for the road, beverage, a little diesel, or whatever it can buy (I know, not much these days!).
Thanks so much Tom. I appreciate every little donation and to get a big one like this is amazing!
@@aquachigger Thanks, Beau. Your adventures helped get me through a rough period in my life. Just happy that I can contribute a little to the cause.
Seen ya got a Pluto bottle. These came from French Lick Indiana where my family is all from. It was a water that had minerals in it that worked as a laxative. When Lithium became a controlled substance, Pluto water stopped production. I think in the 1970s. GR8 video Beau, Mike😊
We love Chigg bottle-digging shows!! Thanks! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
Would like to see more of what comes out of that location/dump. Thanks!
My husband and I drove by where I lived the first 6 years of my life today and we were very poor. Why I mention this there was a town dump next door and the kind man there allowed us 6 kids look through the trash and take what we wanted. I loved dump digging.
Got a few nice finds. Well worth a return trip.
"Dirty hands are happy hands" 👍🏻🤙
Definitely would like to see you go back there. Several neat bottles I haven't seen before.
Please go back chig! Love the bottle hunts!
Definitely think you should go back! Towards the beginning I saw a sealed(?) container that could potentially hold some of those elusive gold coins
Some nice finds there. Well worth going back in the New Year, and Happy New Year to you both.
I so loved this video because I have been waiting to watch you do a bottle dig… I know you mentioned it a few times … so this was a wonderful surprise ❤❤
You found some nice ones, Chigg. Happy New Year!❤
I could watch hours of these bottle videos.
One of the neatest things I ever got to do. Surveyed through an old dump just full of old bottles many years ago and my Party Chief happened to be a collector. He ended up getting dozens of bottle he thought were pretty valuable. It was actually a lot of fun.
This was fun, hope you can get back out there. I remember my mom having a tiny blue bottle like yours and I believe it was some type of eye drops and the light blue with the little stem and foot looks like it was a fancy salt/pepper shaker.
A Blue medicine bottle was often indicative of poison
As a native of Western Maryland I can say I've dug the same dump a few times... lots of milk bottles yes. My 82 years young landlord told me in the 1950's the big late night fun for a Friday night was to park a few cars all in a row, headlights facing the fresh dump area and the boys would "plink" the nany rats with their 22 riffles. Sounds like a lot of fun. Might explain all the broken bottles LOL.
NIce one chig , hope you had a nice Christmas and a happy new year , thanks for a year of great content 👍
It always amazes me what treasure you can find that is considered trash. The work it takes to make these bottles, pure craftsmanship. Thanks for bringing us on your adventure chigg 👍🇬🇧🇺🇸
Always cool to see you bottle digging. Looks like great age for for dairy bottles. Congrats on the cream top. Such an amazing hobby, I started digging 3 years ago. 👍
You sure do end up in some of the coolest digging adventures.
i really enjoy your bottle digs. it's incredible that that lightbulb survived in a dump for the better part of a century and i manage to break one when i drop it on the carpet.
Yes do go back. Love the vinegar bottle. T4S and Happy New 2024 to you and yours Chigg.❤
When you set that green bottle down in that debri I told my wife that we will not see that bottle at roundup. Cool dig. Thanks for sharing!
Would love to see more bottle digging ❤ but enjoy all the adventures you show regardless 😬
Thanks for the video! Hope you have a Happy New Year. Looking forward to more Aquachigger adventures in 2024!
Nice to see you back hope you and yours had a Merry Christmas and a stupendous New Years
Enjoyed the video. My father had a local milk plant in the early 40's so especially interested in the milk bottles. My brother has a full collection which we all gave him ours to keep it together. Keep on digging.
Happy New Year Chigg, hope to see another trip to that place for a bottle dig.
So fun. There is a fellow youtuber Below the plains that specifically hunts bottles . I think you might enjoy taking a peek. Always love your vids!
Most. Of those bottles you found weren't that old. Many of them had machined tops rather than the old tooled tops.
Yes, my husband and I watch him > good stuff
Thanks for the Bottle Hunt Chigg - Have a Safe & Healthy New Year!
Hope you do go back I enjoy seeing old bottles AND mission accomplished you got a cream top milk bottle well done beau great dig thanks for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼 p.s. I have one of those little blue bottles no idea where I got it lol and just out of curiosity what’s the rarest bottle you’ve ever found and the value?
oh yes please go back - great finds! thanks
I vote for a return visit.👍🏻
Yep, bottle digging is fun. One of a couple sites I've dug in is in a sketchy part of town. We had our passenger side window knocked out and haven't been back. Thanks for sharing and stay safe. Happy New Year.
Happy New Year to y’all Chigg GOD BLESS
Come to B.C Canada Fraser valley area this summer for a road trip. Panning and metal detecting. Ghost towns and a lot of cool places. We are planing a trip to Dawson city and pan along the way.
Thanks for all your traveling and hard work making videos this year and past. Happy new year chig
Awesome dig. I love it wen you bottle dig I have a couple of bottles myself from a really old barn. I also remember the cream in tops of milk bottles and the birds used to peck the foil tops to get the cream if you didnt get in quick after the milk man had delivered it lol. Thanks for another awesome vid Chigg x
I believe the green bottle you found around 9:47 is a Squibb’s. I have quite a few. The larger ones came with an embossed Bakelite cap. I’ve found bottles like this in blue as well
I appreciate you always thinking of Lindsay...
HNY! , that 3 sided fancy metal was a bank missing its door , on top was a slit for coins. yep they took the thousand and ran...Our old homeplace recently burned ,bought at the time of Mom's last two babies. 1960ish... I remember next to the garden we dug up old bottles . Mom burned trash at a different location on the property looked like a half grave to me, up until the new house was built in 82 elsewhere. I think of someone in the future digging it up....cracks me up ...but I get it...I did it ! No pop bottles they were returned for our preteen cookouts . Lesson no. 1 never ever put those hard earned hot dogs and chips near the gas lighted wood fire. It`s raining chips and dogs !
Great video Thanks.
You have inspired me to look for bottles next time im going for a hike👍
Thanks for sharing another great adventure 👍
A great adventure as always chig!
Thanks for sharing 🤘
Lindsey should make you take your bath on the deck outside before venturing in the house! Good dig, didn't take the green little bottle home? Thank you for the video!
I like the bottles, def come back.
That was a fun dig. The milk bottles you found are great finds. Love the small blue bottle and the Pineaud . Best wishes and Happy New Year to all of you also.
@14:20 looks like a half of a lime green colored dish, probably uranium glass ware, chartreuse in color ..radioactive and fluoresces in blacklight,. the crazy lamp lady is always finding it in stores, im hooked now, gem people buy it to facet.
Happy New Year Chigg. Nice bottle finds, probably great research. Looking forward to a new year going on your adventures. And, please go back. There’s good treasure hiding.,
Hope you went back for that little green bottle! Thanks mr chiggles!
Cool diggin', Chigg !!😎👊⛏⛏
I think it would be great to see more bottle digging! Always good to do things a bit different. This made me think of chill Bill Have you heard from him as of late? I was just thinking it would be so cool to see you both do something out of your comfort zones! Love your videos! Oh what is the update with your property did you manage to gain access to your property ? Or did you ease a truck on in there? lol let us know ok? :)
Yes what's up with Chill Bill ? And the property?
Love the old bottles
19:40 tickles me when you reference trailer park boys. Keep it up Chigg, love your content #Moar!!
I think you should return and have a good rummage, good site
Love the finds
the whole island at Kanawha Falls W,va is a old trash dump also people raised gardens there...am 75 and remember people gathering there having great times talking with picnic baskets and planting gardens also complaining when produce was stole also shooting snakes as it was full of all sorts and also great fishing there.
Yes go back! Lol really enjoyed watching this
Finding things in ol dumps is exciting. So sure dig away. Happy Newyear Chigg.
Funny you found a Pinaud bottle, i just got a bottle of their “clubman” aftershave for Christmas hah.
hi chiggs the French bottle is an Ed Pinaud Bay rum.They still make it today in plastic bottles.
I think i've seen that blue tiny bottle on another channel. Well, not that one, one like it. The cap was white (ish) and i think the digger said it was perfume of some sort. The remnants of a label were still visible, but illegible. A small rhombus with round corners. I'll have to check to see if i took a screen shot. I usually do whenever cool bottles show up.
edit: found it. Not perfume (well, depending on how you look at it). It's a Vicks bottle. Menthol and camphor drops.
Ah, that makes sense. Thanks
@@aquachigger No problemo, always fun to see your adventures. :)
Way cool 👍
Yes please
Happy New Year to you and yours Chigg, and best wishes for the coming year.
That was a nice creamer milk bottle, pretty good spot . Becareful around homeless they can be quite territorial about they're camp site .
Happy New Year Chigg’s. I would go back and bring Mike with.👍👏
You’re wild as hell for goin up to that tent like that Chigg 😳
Nice adventure!
Oh Nooooooo not the Toil-O-Let Water Oh My Ne Nat!!!;)😂😅 at the End
Great finds
Happy new year’s 🎉
how awesome of a find,
Yeah that was fun,
Great video! you should go back soon!
Keep moving around youll find where the age changes as they moved along. Some cool bottles though.
I wonder at what point we will all start valuing screw tops and 1970s Budweiser bottles? lol
Happy New Year from New Zealand, i like watching your American history.
I want to visit the High Chapprral TV set if i ever visit America when i win a prize in
our TAX free lottery
I like craft beer.
The Currency rate is very low in NZ, now we have a New Govt, it should go up.
When I was buying silver coins a few years back New Zealand silver was the least expensive never could figure out why.
Awesome
when you find a bottle with liquid in it, you should always taste it to identify the liquid.
Gooooo back!!!!
I'd love to see more from yhis spot
Can't wait till we find something like this
When I was a kid they delivered milk in the bottle .. Happy New Year 🤘🏼
I remember the cream coming to the top my uncle had a milk cow I’ve set and churned many a gallon of milk for my granny to make butter. That was the best butter that ever hit a homemade biscuit Chigg I can still taste the little sour taste it had but it was delicious mmmmmmmmmmmmm I’d give anything to go back to them days of churning out butter.
That little blue bottle was love potion #9 😂
I've found some cool old bottles doing this. One little green ink bottle and a blue poison bottle plus ceramic top pop bottle
I hope you do more bottle dump digging
Good afternoon from Southeast South Dakota
I could sit there all day and never get bored
at 2:24, there's a square bottle right at the top of his pick. Just before grabbing the door knob.
Hi, were their other people around because around time stamp 6:11 or 6:12 I hear a voice saying something. Spooky lol
Brad from green mountain metal detecting he's done bottle digs with Greg in Vermont and found a lot of bottles.
Interesting finds. So sad to be reminded there are people in this country who live in tents while we allowing millions more in. We can't even take care of those we have. Sad.
Hi.. Oklahoma here
There is a guy in MD that has a you tube channel that makes a living colecting old bottles, he would love the ones you are not keeping I bet, he digs a lot of privy s
I would LOVE to go bottle digging but I wouldn’t have any idea where I could find a spot around where I am.
On one of your shows you came up with badge it a road decoder pin 1939 orphan Annie just think about Christmas story he goes in the bathroom to decode the massage drink more often when you should a better shot I saw the two holes were can mach up letters and numbers
It amazes me how much of these dumps you have there in the U S & A
Love dump digging
Always interesting how everything else is pulverized but a light bulb can come out in one piece. Wouldn't be the first time I saw that.
Howdy
