SHOCKING FIND!!! I FOUND MY OLDEST BOTTLE EVER! TREASURE HUNTING FOR VALUABLE ANTIQUE BOTTLES!

[@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations]

I really like how they get frosted by tumbling in the water like that.

Finding any 1800s bottles is def a good day 💪

Great ginger beer bottle find! Gonna rate it 9 bottles 🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾

[@dannyharrell6269]

I have found 4 of those Ginger Beer bottles in Alabama.

[@tomshively5419]

Nice stone bottle Congratulations! On those broken bottles below the label, cut 'em like you would a glass, then fill 'em with scented waxes and sell as candles!

[@stevenwiezbicki8894]

Ginger beer is deeee-licious!

Congratulations of the oldest bottle! So awesome!! 😊👍👍👍

[@billyjohnson6379]

Nice video, super finds,it looks hot and snakey in that creek,congrats on the small elephant peanut butter jar,I think that Crack can be stabilized and almost good as new,but the value will still be lower but you will have a nice peanut butter elephant 🐘

[@ClaytonCountyHistoryHound]

Nice Ginger Beer. Thanks for sharing the hunt and finds. Good luck, happy hunting and take care.

[@toddhill4411]

thank you for sharing your hobby with us good job BRandon

[@shellydehart8217]

I think I get just as excited as you but of course I don’t know much about bottles but it’s so cool to find any. I’m sure here in Florida there’s plenty of bottles but I have no clue as how to go about finding them, could you help a old lady out on that. I’m so curious at how you know all of this n where to go to find any? Thanks Brandan . I love your videos n can’t wait like today when you go a hunting. ♥️♥️😊👍👍👍

That stone beer is very typical of what we see in the uk. Lots of different breweries for ginger beer and very collectable if you like them. One even showed up in an old episode of Dr Who (Tom Baker) and i have that actual bottle type in my collection 🙂

[@tomfrazier1103]

Found a lot of those stone ginger beers here. I got an exact context date of 1893/4. Our good porcelain caps are from around 1910 and very valuable. They went on top of the stone bottles. A friend found one still attached to the bottle. R.I.P Earl Kiyabu on first impression a grouchy guy, but full of Aloha for all, and a champion digger. Our one painted letter ginger beer is a Rycroft crown of 1917. Never actually found one or frag. I have found some good glass Rycrofts elsewhere. That first slick looks like an extract. There is one Hawaiian extract embossed. Probably a lot of local products were in paper labeled slicks. I found one whole, and many broken twist neck amber tooled square fifths. The whole one has a blank slugplate. I did find a c1913 ABM slugplate "Waialua Soda Works Bottle is not Sold".not valuable, but nice to find a gem whole one. My first Hutch in '08 is a 4pc. Waialua Soda Works. About 1902, found in Waialua. Later they put on the Not Sold rider. Those stone beers came from Britain and Scotland as ballast in windjammers.

At least they are not leaching chemicals. But I do agree with you. Sometimes caused by flooding sometimes people disposal.

me and my brother are digging for bottles our oldest that we have found is 1840s flask it says full pint and it we also found a 1900s listerine bottles and old frenchs mustard and ketchup bottles :) and loads more. One of our favorites is a old cerum bottle with the cerum still in it and a tiny pain killer medicine bottle

[@patriciaguillory8424]

I don't see how you're alone, bottle digging is great itself but river walking and bottle picking is almost an unforgettable experience every time you go, if i were your friend you wouldn't be alone because i'd be right beside you loving every minute of it..I can picture saloons along the banks, in fact that's the america i want to live in, History is fun.

I’ve heard the stone beer bottles were used on ships coming to the gold rush to help with the ballist on the ships, hence why over here in Ca we call them ballist beer

Not as good as Ballistic Beer ! ;)

Hi, a further comment to my previous one regarding the two toned stout or ale shown in your video.The examples we have found here in Otago New Zealand, are often incised with Dundee [Scotland], Portobello [Scotland] or Lambeth potteries [England. Or just plain examples.

[@backand2theleft925]

Hey brother love listening to you. I'm an engineer for Honda and I put in mybear piece listen to you and start my design work. Love it. I do have a suggestion for you, for those bottles to broke to make a drinking glass out of, can you make a pen or pencil marker holder. I would use them for sure. You can cut the bottle down a little lower even if it goes through the script I know inwould use it.

[@adventurearchaeology]

I have considered that! Are you at the Honda plant in Lincoln? I was in there all day yesterday dealing with the engine plant haha!

[@backand2theleft925]

@@adventurearchaeology No. I have been there. I'm on the wire harness design side at the OHIO plant. I have been many times down to gadsden and Leesburg for HONDA. Love Alabama. I got another idea for you. You should hold a work shop and have people sign up and pay (your price goes here) to do a dig or a walk through on one of your most well known areas (so you don't give away anybtrafe secret spots). I would pay and come down for that.

[@ingeborgm6147]

I am not a collector but love watching. I would love to see some numbers sometimes...on a special bottle maybe? Some round-about $ values so we none-experts can truly appreciate your finds and efforts you put in. Yes I know it is not just for the money....for me it would be and for many it is! I think h is nothing better than enjoying a great hobby and making some money doing it! "Break a bottle"...or whatever it is you say to wish each other luck.. :)

[@ncoutdooradventures6148]

Ok,, after having watched several of your videos,, you get my subscription. That stoneware beer jug is absolutely amazing! I can't believe you found it,, whole,, in a creek filled with unknown obstacles! You mentioned, though, that that creek was lined with saloons at one time,, have you ever taken your metal detector up on some of those flats to see if you could locate a foundation?

[@adventurearchaeology]

I don’t have permission for anything other than the creeks sadly!

[@djpuffthethird]

What a great find Brandon . A stone Ginger Beer . One of the first I ever found was exactly the same Shape , different top and internal screw with transfer print on . Think mines stamped 1929 . It's amazing how long that shape of bottle has been going . Like you say from Early 1800's . Got be over 100 years . But then I found d mine in UK/GB where I live . . The two colour claze is great looking and the rough base is so tactile. Fills the hand great . Yeah stamping would have been great .

Hi Brandon , I am new to your channel & love it . Quick question . I have found 7 1940 - 1960 green Coca-Cola bottles in the woods of my parents lake home in Crow Wing County Minnesota . All of these are full bottles . The cities Brainerd , St. Paul , Virginia , Hutchinson , Mankato , Minneapolis were on the bottom . Are there rare cities or years to look for ? How do people collect these or is there a way to amass a complete collection ?
