Do you guys have a website where you sell the bottles you unearth?

Have you ever found one of those jugs filled with coins?

You mean future videos are going to be cut for non payers? If so that's not a good thing to do if you want to grow your channel.

Bro how are u still alive lol

When you say we you mean your parents?

@@Kerosene.... They said they bought a house that was BUILT in 1945. Not that they were born in 1945.

My granddad hap a picture of the queen mother 😂😂

I don't know if your grandpop is Lou Sallo from Center Valley Pa. About 1990 1991 he dug up a stolen Harley that was totally taken apart and buried in a steel military coffin. He also tracked down the original owner but I think the Harley was a 61. My dad dated the coffin to the vietnam war era he said they were sold at surplus stores all over our area in the mid 1970s you could buy em ammo cans and gun crates we had piles of that crap in our garage. Lou and his dad that just recently passed away a few months back did just that with the bike they redid the engine among other parts most of the bike was intact and had been neatly taken apart. The only missing piece to the bike was the front wheel which they used a bit later model wheel. I think possibly the wheel would not have fit inside the coffin the engine back wheel and frame mostly took up all the room the coffins were pretty narrow if ya ever seen one. One of the other things in the coffin were foreign porn magazines wrapped in a plastic like wax paper. We found a 22 pistol that had been stolen on Philly circa 1966. Mostly Lou got to keep everything because everyone in the matters was dead and gone.

I wished you could have filmed your adventure and put it on utube.

What a treasure to keep in the family.

What a story! And the reply…fantastic! I grew up with no grandparents involved. Yours sounded an absolute fascinating character.

@@SPotter1973 yeah we dig about 6 to 15 foot deep and we find old horse bones wrapped in blankets ..kinda cool to see the old tradition

how fun!

That's pretty cool. I've never dug a hole and found anything other than snakes and worms. Not as interesting. 🤣🤙🍻

I also used to be a plumber back in the 1970’s in Hudson County New Jersey. All old towns. Digging up old water and sewer lines I found many marbles. It seems they would drop a marble or 2 in the trenches. Or even under a basement floor before cementing. I started saving them, and have a bag of about 40. Some pretty clean, some chipped, a few with cement stuck to them. All from days gone by.

Thats awesome

Now that would be wonderful!

Pictures or it didn't happen.

Where do you find out what they're worth? I've got old medicine bottles too I dug up, old shoes, pepsi bottles, etc

@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ go away! 🤦‍♀️

They must have been pontiled bottles from tge Civil War and prior.

Where's mick when you need em?

Love Time Team ❤

If the pilot sat in the back and the dust in the front where did you sit....

@@jackaustin3576 with your mother Jack ass

Half of archeology lmao

One man's garbage is another man's treasure

in a hundred years people will film themselves digging through our landfills

Once had a girlfriend whose Dad was a bottle enthusiast. He had a similar technique. First, he'd find an old abandoned house in the woods. He would go to the back door and throw a junk bottle as far as he could. Walk to where the bottle landed and start looking/digging. Apparently, a lot of drinkers back in the day would dispose of bottles this way. It was effective; the walls of his house didn't have room for pictures. Every inch was covered with shelving floor to ceiling to hold his bottle collection.

I wanna dig up my backyard now

Thanks for the explanation. I was wondering why things from the Victorian era were so far below ground.

Refuse pits were common back then because they didnt have sanitation departments like we have today. And like your family we had pits on the farm also. I just never thought to go digging up anything. Unintended time capsules.

@@prostyle1626 so true 👍

Not in the USA, where was this?

@@fishinwidow35 I lived in Tennessee in the USA.

I grew up and lived with my kin folks near Kutztown Pa. Same deal dumps that went back to the revolutionary war not just the civil war. Most farms had huge dumps if U knew where to look. We had old bottles and coins from early 1700s & 1800s one penny from 1759. Some of those early coins were British coins probably tossed out after losing their original value because of our money system. Most notable treasure I save is an oil lamp a Milk Glass lamp made in Lancaster England. The appraiser my dad took it to back in the 70s around the bicentennial was one old guy. When he saw the lamp he immediately offered my dad $100 for the lamp because one it was in perfect condition even had a brass wick collar not steel or tin. I have no idea of the actual value but being it was parlor lamp not a table lamp it stands about 2 feet tall with the beautiful shade. Whoever buried it did just that they buried it perhaps not wanting to break it because it was that beautiful with the flowers in the glass shade. I have a farm house now in the coal regions and that is all I dig up is old wire insulators and leather shoes. I have gotten a few bottles and vasoline bottles and even got coke & beer bottles from the early 1950s were on the top. I never really dug the pit open here. Some of things I did find I did not dig for the stuff the back yard ground hog jettisoned the stuff while digging his holes under my firewood piles. My first year here I did find some coins and two silver dollars from the 1890s one I think is 1895. I found a gold coin it's the size thickness of a modern nickel but nobody locally knows what kind of coin it is that that worn. One local collector suggested it was an Italian or Spanish coin from the early 1700s. Mostly this area was inhabited by the Irish and Pa Dutch like me. Most of the other ethnics came along after WW I...

Lavender color is valuable in old glass wire connectors.

I was thinking exactly the same thing.

Yea, people do crazy things when treasures are involved, myself included. Found an old 1700s brick lined well years ago and of course me and a buddy had to in it and dig. We hit water! It was about 15 ft deep and decided to take all the bricks out from the top down. Crazy to think we did that but came out ok. Got 400 bucks for the old bricks.

@@kfiscal01 WOW, scary and cool story at the same time! I bet there was coins under all that water! Glad it turned out so well. Blessings,Fran

Yes, had the same thought. Yikes!

@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ AMEN

🤣 My luck, that would be the first place my Mom looked for the potato pitch fork to be stashed..lol Blessings, Fran

Just remember, deeper=older. 😁

Also remember, unsupported ditches can and do collapse. Be safe 😊

yeah we have started to focus more on all of the finds, instead of just the unbroken bottles.. and wow, i really appreciate that.. i know, its such a random thing to have a channel about, but its just something we've been doing for a long time. thank you for the nice comment, glad you found your way to the channel!

😆 Me as well... Cool Stuff! Makes me want to dig up my yard...

my wife has a plan to do a story about shoes. you know that single shoe in the middle of the road, hanging on a power line, at the beach, pretty much everywhere people have been. each had a story or stories even. "lost soles" if you steal it you will be sued. she has been working on it for years and was smart enough to protect her ideas. but I'm interested in knowing any stories you may have and want to include (yes you will be credited).

I wanted to see those shoes also!! Oh the stories they hold..lol Blessings, Fran

@@BelowthePlains I have loads and loads of the old ironstone fragments from my digs......what do you guys do with all of the old china and pottery pieces....just a nosey question from an avid digger upper.....

Ppl ppl ppl,do we have to say: oh my God? For everything that impresses you,thalt shall not take God's name in vain!!! He's listening,but if he spoke you because you said that,how would you react? There's: oh wow! And don't be saying holy shit either,that's another no no! After all,it's just someone's old trash,not a miracle! And that impresses you?

@@davidrussell8795 shut up sickening

Near the Everglades ?

@@paulsuprono7225 No, nearer the Gainesville/Ocala area. Horse country.

seagrove, sc is a pottery mecca even in colonial times. I bought a small set of blond pottery for every day use there 10 yrs ago. Colours and patterns were beautiful. potter told me it was a pattern from an old bowl he found buried in similar circumstances as this video. reckon it was 1740s design.

That must be so fun! Bet you want to dig through it for days.

Definitely where you find the “ good shit” 😂

@@brockbaker3able lol!

Hey, from Ohio, you know the Museum of Natural History in Cincinnati has a display of outhouse history from around the Cincy area. It's pretty cool.

I'm 5 hours from Cincinnati but I'll check it out thank you

What a lovely singing voice you must have

Gloves help. Am puzzled that he grips the spade handle with the thumb around it, though, that tends to give you nasty sores... 🤨

Gloves

@@Smo1k that's why I always get nasty sores using one. The more you know..

And they still do

@@idiotburns Facts 😂😢

i have family in streator, do you know where the old glass and bottling factory was located? Is it near the vermillion down town? Bet theres a lot of bottles in the vermillion near streator

@@Quantrills.Raiders it's located next to the am track rail line. It has a viaduct that crosses the rail and also goes over the mountains of crushed recycled glass.

No TV back then 🤣

I remember Grand Union in Schenectady ❤

I imagine how much those ppl would be cracking up knowing that we're digging through their out house looking for valuable artifacts. 😁😅

"Do you ever think about stuff?"

Lol 😆 so all that dirt is basically human compost? Lol 🤢

He probably knows he's digging a poop hole.

The description says it was a privy.

That's why it's such soft digging...

You’ll make a shit pile of money with antique glassware. Especially if you can find depression glass.

Ugh. I feel like I've experienced that just around my home, gardening, planting trees/shrubs, etc. I've been wanting to try. Live in Maryland btw... Still going to try!

Funny how someone's garbage mixed with poop becomes valuable.

I realize it’d be more effort from a production standpoint, but an outro with you showing and talking about those items was what I meant.

He should keep them all

I second the comments here. Love to see the cleaned up items at the end. I see you have shown a couple here. Really nice!

Your videos outshine many others due to the effort you put into history and documentation: I absolutely love the graphics that you insert!! However, I have timed the views you give us of embossed bottles and it's right around 4 or 5 seconds. More, please. Thank you for all of the time you put into entertaining us, Tom!!

142 yrs old ya throw nothing away lol 😂and most bottles have been found before mate and have a market price to find any value of any bottle is really so simple ya will scoff at it lol 😂 ya just type the brand of bottle into ya search 👀 and it will take you to a auction page that has sold the bottle you have 👌
