Finding Valuable Coca Cola Bottles And Civil War Relics!

[@adirondackErin]

I love old bottles. I would have grabbed every single one!

[@maggiegerman5220]

I absolutely love the civil war finds. I enjoy the way you talk to the camera (us) and share the info on the finds .

[@thomasraymond2523]

Stay in Cleaner Waters AquaChigger We care about Your Health!!!!! Great Video!!!!!! Thank You!!!!!

[@rammice]

Saladfingers would love your grubby tap find

[@aaronneumeyer5572]

Would love to see a follow up video on the bottles. Let us know how old they ended up being!

[@realandroid8589]

Great video. You're probably my favorite youtuber. Thanks for all the work you put into it

[@dannyraleigh7773]

Some neat finds, love the bottles and the bullets are cool too. Clean that entire river out, I would.

[@sonnydaze2007]

YOU ARE MY FAVORITE CHANNEL CHIGG! YOUR VIDEOS ARE THE BEST AND YOUR NUMBER ONE!!! KEEP UP WHAT YOU DO BEST BUDDY!!!

[@stansmith7630]

All of those bottles are worth money! Thousands and thousands! Pick every bottle!! Even at 2$ a bottle or 1$ uiur making a lot! My guess most go for 5-15$!!! Go back pick them all!!!

[@johnobserve517]

My thoughts exactly ! I'd load up my whole truck with them !

[@testiclestoshirleycles5755]

fart in a bottle and mail it to me

[@dallmydyjr.6968]

Same thoughts

[@Natasha___.]

@@testiclestoshirleycles5755 😂why???

[@patriciadunn6602]

Liked the little sugar cube tongs...awesome

[@limpdickit]

last I saw in a price book the clear coke bottle like the one you found went for 100 bucks and the brown ones were even more...and that was several years ago. I found 2 perfect ones and a brown 7 up bottle in and old dump in downtown Dallas back in 2001. in 3 hours my bottle collection went from 30 bottles to 300!

[@pedrovision6987]

That spigot was COOL!! Thanks AC!!

[@stoneblue1795]

Good video! Officially more interesting than TV or Netflix tonight. Nice.

[@Five3Design]

GREAT penny find!!! I was just looking in my old childhood collection. I have an Indian head penny from 1859!

[@stevebonds4698]

Man I love your videos. Would love to spend a day or two with you detecting.

[@maryhelen1011]

Another awesome video! Love the old coke bottles! All the best to you and safe travels!

[@T3hJones]

Very nice finds! I would hoard soo much if I found a place like that!

[@briannalively2023]

Love this I think those coke bottles are pretty old looking at them

[@briannalively2023]

Maybe idk

[@addagwenlyn9662]

They are about 100 yrs. old. And can be worth $500-$800 a piece.

[@ulrik99]

Rock 'n Roll Daddio Not that much, from 20 to 50 depending on the quality of the bottle.

[@Quagmire88]

Those coca cola bottles date back around the 1900-1917 range. They are pretty rare and can sell for a decent bit.

[@ZarahJade1]

am I the only one who answers Beau while watching his videos? cause I sometimes have small conversations with him!😀

[@shawnbacon6637]

Nope. guilty of that as well

[@sudaev]

Well I find myself holding my breath when he says to.

[@pest5547]

Zarah Jade I hold my breath a lot...

[@68camarorsss33]

You should do a woods/railroad tracks type of finds type of video it's getting that time of year again. Amazing channel entertaining and informative thanks Aqau!!

[@deltatfraidy]

Wow chig everything you found is all from 1860s- Mid 1930s...that type of spigot was phased out to the more modern ones in the mid 30s..... Very cool!

[@budmartin8297]

At 14:17, that broken bottle is a Budwine softdrink bottle. I once found a well full of them.

[@iaagg]

What always gets me is the tens of thousands of people that live around this body of water and nobody, but Chigg thinks to check it for artifacts, and he doesn't even live near there.

[@Ryanw21]

those are rare straight side cokes $100-500

[@sportlegend4496]

I love the new sound it makes when you like a comment.

[@connerbapst2299]

Clever but not enough

[@johnnydoe4179]

The new sound it makes when you dislike is better.

[@davidjames2788]

I was so close to falling for that.

[@addagwenlyn9662]

I like silence. Therefore, I guess I'll never hear that new sound it makes. LoL

[@jbt159]

Sport Legend you got me there chief

[@CatalinaThePirate]

Intriguing place... I wonder how all those nails got there, not to mention the bottles! Looking forward to a return trip, 'cause there's obviously more there to discover. GL&HH, and travel safe. d8^)

[@johnobserve517]

great video I love all the old glass !! keep it up with the great content :)

[@mcwatchy1]

i liked that little brown cork top,when i was a kid i used to collect bottles because my mom liked em so much. not bein near any rivers makes it just a lil difficult to do anymore.

[@Lyndam98]

When we were kids the place we used to swim was close to the site of a military fort built 1812-ish. We would take our Dad's tobacco tins (useful things, those--don't see them anymore! LOL) and FILL them with musket balls. You could wade out up to your neck and just duck under and pick up two, three, five at at time. I don't really remember, because, being a girl, I just wasn't that interested except for the hunt, and gave them all to my brother. He had quite a few, but I'm sure more of them were sold as scrap lead. The fort, already a tourist attraction at the time, didn't want them! LOL. With a little luck, on the way home, you could fill your pockets with clay pipe bowls and ends. Sometimes a military button. I found a horseshoe or two. You could scramble up and down the shore, the bank and even in the dry ditches without getting too much notice. Not now. A kid in the dry ditches would find himself in the midst of a whole passel of guards making a big fuss.

[@miskatonic763]

Dr.Kilmer's Swamp root Tonic came from Binghamton, NY . He made his fortune, and owned two great horses! Man -o-War and Exterminator.

[@redmachine914]

man that spot is up my alley. Great video

[@darionwilliams232]

man your channel is sooo cool! i wish i could do the stuff you do and its so interesting that you find SO much awesome stuff

[@NAMIC-97]

I like your videos because your outside discovering things most people don't see its unique keep up the good work man

[@mikemarriam]

Glad you finally found some treasure.

[@stovepipe9232]

I believe that coke bottle is about 1910-15

[@TheTractorjaws]

What are they worth?

[@stovepipe9232]

TheTractorjaws It's called an original straight. They go for 25-30$.

[@TheTractorjaws]

Thank you!

[@stovepipe9232]

TheTractorjaws No problem!

[@MrFireline55]

100 years old, kind of hard to believe isn't it.

[@jakepennyii2814]

That musket ball is in perfect shape!

[@bergmanstrook]

Nice Coca Cola bottles, great..... Gave Coca Cola flesjes, geweldig....

[@crazyhorseaz5224]

Auto play keeps me watching, good videos man. Enjoy those civil war items. Thanks

[@mdtreasurehuntervalley9689]

Hey Beau, At film frame 3:06 right before you grab some nails, looks like a Williams cleaner type III Civil War Bullet! take a look.

[@davemork4910]

Nice candy or sugar cube tongs! I would have a field day on a site like that! I would be the river janitor for sure! LOL ;-)

[@SpiritBear12]

That flat brass thing might be for suspenders or what we call Farmer jeans or Overalls. You would find them at the end of a strap and you slid the key hole looking slot over a button to anchor it to keep your pants up. It might not have been meant for pants, but it's to clip onto something to keep something secure.

[@andynightingale7335]

Nice video Beau, the Coke bottles were amazing. Was that the old Pepsi logo on one of the bottles you picked up? Keep up the excellent work Chigg!

[@CharlieTalmadge]

Great Spot.. Dumping area...Swimming too back in the day.

[@alexsmall9210]

Love the old Coke bottles, keep up the great videos!

[@richiephillips1038]

I absolutely love old coke bottles. You should do a giveaway.

[@bobordewald1367]

Dr. Kilmers Swamp Root Kidney Cure. I found a smaller bottle just like that 30-40 years ago. I still have it somewhere.....

[@mudglass4253]

Broken one you asked about looked like a Bludwine bottle. Would love to see a return video, those Cokes are sweet!

[@jacobgarrity6239]

The partial bottle piece, you couldn't read is called Bludwine. Awesome video ! Would love to bottle hunt with you !!

[@la05082]

Brass straight pins are a fairly common find among the wreckage of blockade runners. They were shipped in wood casks and were apparently in demand by the Confederate states.

[@MylesNicholas]

I reckon you should carry a small 2 inch neodymium magnet with a soft iron keeper on 12 inches of cord to pick up nails etc.

[@samilt13]

Really enjoyed this video, love the old coke bottles.

[@kittymorse7402]

You have the most engaging smile.

[@Passionist123]

Cool finds! Really interesting video :)

[@billiebobthemechanic]

Chigg river safety tip "Never, I mean never touch glass when in the river" "ohh look coke bottles!" LOL

[@l.h.c.powerwashing7289]

thanks for sharing! i wonder if an old store got washed away in a flood?

[@jimmyroberts3]

not the river janitor....did a heck of a job on that river floor. lol. thats gotta take alot of patience

[@artifacthunter]

The Blu bottle is most likely Bludwine. Nice straight sided cokes from Columbia SC!

[@thegirlcriedfashion]

The crushed silver sugar rings are beautiful, such a shame that they've been crushed and compressed over the years. So pretty though!

[@kokkonutfreaks]

Those old Cokes are worth a lot of money!

[@bhick3572]

He should grab every last one and sell them!

[@bhick3572]

And probably keep a few though!

[@wolfedavid3700]

yes........always have been.......

[@jerseydemon4134]

Great video 👍 id love to see a bottle hunt from that place

[@will2-b150]

cool bottles. thanks for the vid chigg

[@Buck112]

I was told by an old picker and Coke collector that when the Coke bottle styles changed, the local bottlers would load up all the old style bottles and break them. Some went into the local tip or into the local river or creeks. A lot of those strait side cokes will have damage to them but they are all collectable. Take them home.....

[@Karen-mk6sq]

You needed a small garden trowel. One year of the V nickles is worth a ton of money, can't remember which year though. I have a huge spot underwater of WW1 (mostly, some older stuff) and found a V nickle. So far got about 50 buttons, 1800's half of a handcuff set, medals, coins, a spur, 2 toy pistols, lead balls and bullets, silver flatware, LOTS of horseshoes...All by hand and sight, no metal detector.

[@leeboyle8600]

love the videos chigg keep them coming

[@jerrybeavers3808]

Thanks for sharing.

[@stephenpost6971]

Great job chigg!

[@andrewcottingham9167]

Man I'd be in heaven! I love old soda bottles!

[@scorpiouk5914]

NC Bottles (you tube handle) could tell you exactly what you have, bottle-wise. I am pretty dang sure those smooth-side Cokes are valuable. The brass pins are interesting. I watched a BBC show on the History Channel a few years ago called "The Worst Jobs In History". It went thru various British eras and the presenter (Tony Robinson) gamely tried to do each job. I distinctly remember one from the era of Shakespere. The fashion back then demanded that people used hundreds of pins to get dressed. And someone had to make those pins (bad job). The series is posted here on You Tube.

[@evilsurroundsus4524]

hi chigg i went out for my first metal detection and didnt find one coin just tent pegs lighters bottle tops and can ringpulls and a buried barbacue 6 hours ispent i did injoy it wish i lived in america all the cool stuff you guys have over there

[@edwardcharlesworth9679]

Cromwellian tent pegs?

[@basstribute7807]

where abouts are you from? I'm from Adelaide, South Australia. I found the best way to make a profit is to hit up public parks and play grounds, found a 18 carat gold and diamond ring back in 2013, but that was about it! :P

[@tomdejong8860]

where do you live m from Holland and here is also good stuf buried

[@theSKOL1]

I am guessing you live in the UK like me ? I bought a starter detector last year and had a go but the same thing bottle tops , ring pulls , nails the only coin i found was an old 2p in my own garden trying the detector out ! I am just waiting for the grass to die down and then will have another go at an old school playing field that i know of and yeah the videos of people detectoring finding great stuff mostly seem to be in the USA !

[@sunderlandtillidie5770]

the best place in the uk for finding cool shit is along Hadrian's Wall

[@peteb2]

This video reignited my interests in what your finding AC. Still worries the hell out of me that sometimes that water looks more toxic than just being cloudy and that you're taking a bit of a risk getting exposed to some yuck sickness or something... still what would i know, just that where i live the streams and rivers in my country are usually good enough to drink directly from...!

[@tim9430]

Chigg most likely has a very robust immune system precisely from doing this kind of stuff. I was thinking about that too though.

[@Cactus-wn8ix]

Sorry for being late but congrats on 1 million subscribers

[@Brandewey]

i would so love to go out there and pick up all those bottles to save them and to clean the river :D

[@addagwenlyn9662]

Hmm, I didn't know Columbia was abandoned. Does that include MIZZOU ?

[@Brandewey]

the town isnt abandoned but there is a bunch of places in and around columbia that is abandoned

[@jjkapelar783]

That broken bottle piece is a bludwine and was a cherry carbonated soft drink from about 1913 to 1932, a shame it was broke, after about 1934 the bludwine bottling works renamed it budwine, that bottle was a definite good bottle GL and HH beau.

[@a_zombie_killaonpsn1572]

When the bubble came out of that kidney liver bottle you probably re-released the plague or something lol.

[@Wjallison22]

Covid came out

[@cuddles6938]

Some Coca Cola bottles of Soda Water with Canton Ohio advertising on them go for about $100, 1900-1915 bottles can go for as much as $500 each! 1910 Belzoni, Mississippi bottles with no cracks and straight sided are about $460. So yes depending on age etc they are worth picking up. I doubt many survived outside of the river.

[@TheSugarmumma]

hey mate,, really enjoy your channel, gives a person the urge to explore... anyhow, this comment relates to the dress making pins, i did learn from watching your buddy 'chill bill' that those big wide dresses ladies used to wear were chock full of pins so perhaps someone lost her sewing kit off a wagon :)

[@mikehansen4687]

I really respect your search for all Civil War. Old bottles are interesting. Brand Name bottles are better... Old Coke and other brands can be worth the same if not more than most of what you collect from the Civil War if money is an important issue while collecting.

[@heehaw8401]

Love the bottles!

[@jackcampell6107]

I can almost guarantee if I did this here in Australia, in the same looking location, I would have been attacked by a bull shark or eaten by a crocodile.

[@boostedtorana6829]

haha yeah true us Aussies cant do stuff like that

[@raeannuria5691]

tylor smith n

[@bobbybquick7511]

Yeah, well, where I live, entire packs of coyotes, rattlesnakes, and giant deadly spiders live.Yet I can go in the middle of the desert and metal detect with no problem.

[@jfseal38]

The only things he really has to worry about are snapping turtles(which you saw!), water moccasins, and copperheads. Any one of those will definately ruin your day in a heartbeat, but, I think I'd take my chances with any one of those than go up against a bull shark or a crocodile! I visited Australia once, and the flying foxes alone freaked me out! General rule of thumb when you're in the outback down under: if it swims, crawls, or slithers, it can probably kill you! Out of the top ten most venomous snakes in the world, 5 of them are found in Australia! And I believe, if I'm not mistaken, they're the TOP five! And you love living there why?! Lol! Cheers, mate! (Oh yeah, don't forget about the Sydney funnel web spider! They will actually run AT you, not away from you like most spiders!!! Half inch fangs, dripping nasty, highly toxic venom!!! NO. THANK. YOU.)

[@tim9430]

In the south eastern US it could be an alligator, cotton mouth water moccasins, or get your foot caught and drown on someones trot line stretched across the bottom of the river to catch cat fish. There are also giant pythons and other large snakes that were imported and now gone wild. We also have big cats, wolves, bears, etc but not all in the same area. I guess wherever you are you need to know the area. I hear in New Zealand there is hardly any living thing that can hurt you (aside from people) unless you possibly choked while eating it. Not too many places like that though.

[@relicsinger2050]

those old coke bottles from my understanding can be worth a lot of money depending on were they were made and condition. Cool find.

[@88schwyptrlcar]

Hmmm,...Those straight-sides were Columbia SC......Probably Odd to find them up there where you were unless you were down here. But then again I could be wrong. I love seeing them,....pick up ALL YOU CAN. Its just like picking up money off the ground!

[@leburnham5864]

Around here, the straight sided Coke bottles sell from $20.0- $40.00+, depending on how "snooty" the antique store is, and the time of year. Xmas brings the prices up on them.RE: Pins: An acquaintance of mine says many of the ones imported from England were silver, and he has done Mud Larking and digging there and is in hog heaven when he finds them in any condition, as they are worth scrap silver at the least. I doubt you will find any silver ones, but keep an eyeball out for them. Great latch piece you found too.

[@davidross5169]

You will have to carie A bottle bag ,as a young kid I loved the creek ,put on my my mask ,go among the rocks an stones ,loved it .!!!

[@showmedirt2374]

Great Video Beau. @ 3:06 Seems you passed over a Pistol Bullet? Near the brass items on the rock.

[@quaidmcgeorge]

‼️ hey what ever you did, keep doing it,, your video is very clear this time ‼️👌🏽

[@blackhawk2788]

😂 it helps if you change the video quality to 1080p

[@koltpetty632]

I'd love that spot! I collect old bottles.

[@sandybarbour7798]

Congratulations on the coke bottles AWESOME finds

[@darrow3065]

Thank you

[@stevebaker6432]

what a great spot, you'll have to keep going back there

[@BJOlson]

I keep seeing what look a lot like mussels. are those some kind of freshwater clam? a few were around 9:35.

[@jv2117]

straight sided coke bottles!! nice find

[@stevehanken8520]

Brass pins that have heads made with brass wire wrapped around them tend to be early, and often used with clothing. Certainly they would be period Civil War.

[@dougl945]

That was a bludwine bottle. Very cool

[@cappuccinocoyote7451]

My grandpa would love those coke bottles. His entire basement is full of old coke stuff he's collected over the years.

[@bestatnba2k]

Aqua October is coming up , can you do more haunted videos please . Please

[@jeremyjames5595]

yes!

[@FutureMarine507]

Hey Aquachigger, so I have found a fairly old bottle dump in Iowa and as TONs of bottles, antiques, and more. I was wondering how you remove and dig for bottles safely without any damage.

[@Edwardnarby92]

I love that little brass tap! If you don't know what to do with it I'll have it:)

[@pcitb5234]

Nice one, Hi from Ireland

[@jojaboyjim]

Beau, those CC bottles go for $10+ on Ebay, the brown ones are more valuable.
