Fun dig! Make sure you dig all the way to the bottom, that's often where you find the oldest bottles (and there tends to be more at the bottom too). Start at the riverbank and work your way up!
It’s such an addicting hobby. Anytime I’m not digging I’m thinking about digging lol. Those little tiny bottles are Liver Pills. I have one with a paper label. Looks like you are digging a lot of the same bottles I find here in Vermont. Good stuff 👍
I used to bottle hunt in northern Westchester, Putnam and in the Catskills. The coolest find ever was when I was turtle hunting in Southampton, NY. I stuck my hand down into the muck at the edge of Old Town Pond and what I thought was a turtle... was an old ceramic Dundee Marmalade jar.
man I dream of just going bottle hunting. I love those little medicine vile bottles you found, just find little bottles like those cool and look good on display with other bottles of various sizes and colors.
Yes- the smaller one is a "Dekay's Brown Snake" and the larger one a common Garter Snake. I found a few "Ring Necked Snakes" too- which will be in another video.
New sub, awesome channel! Great finds and love the snakes! Looking forward to more of your content. Happy hunting and good luck from Jim and Mason, New Hampshire USA.
Yeah, I, too, think that those embossed bottles are cool but my wife isn't impressed. My last house (eastern MA) was built in 1874. I found the place out back at the edge of the woods where they dumped their trash. I found a couple beer cans that were not in the identification books. The biggest find (literally) was the frame of a very old car, with a tree growing through it. It was too embedded in the wetlands to remove.
1874- nice! Probably all sorts of goodies hidden in and around it. House next to mine is from 1780s or so- I'd love to excavate where an old outbuilding once stood, but the owners have been using the spot to dump leaves and lawn clippings forever, so it would take quite some time to uncover....
Always keep old beer cans. They can be cleaned up with oxalic acid. Some beer cans are worth good money even if they are in poor shape. Some very rare beer cans have been found in Massachusetts.
A few mystery items in here where I have no clue as to their origin/use- any idea? Let me know...

Definitely addictive! Thanks for checking it out

Thats pretty cool! I'm a big fan of turtles too- my brother and I used to obsessively catch em/look for them (catch and release).
@@streetsshallprovide2029 I used to catch them - painted turtles mostly - de-leech them and throw them back in.

Yeah, there were tons of those tiny ones at this site....
Good video, as always.
Great video! Excellent treasure. Cool snakes! Know what they are?🌺

You can find more of those little vials than Carter has little liver pills!
Jimmy Carter? Lol

Hey thanks so much- been a little behind, but working on posting new content soon! Pretty local to you- (here in MA)
Do we have to pin gloves to your coats? LOL
I'm going to tape them to my forehead from now on.....
Found a lot of cast iron toys too.
THAT is pretty cool!
Dude I think that yellowish snake you found was a copperhead!
No, a "Dekays Brown Snake"- very harmless
