Hey Dubbel Sue, thank you for subscribing. I wish everyone looked at like you do. Professional archeologists take a much different view. FYI-I recently started on Tik Tok as well, same name.
Thank you…have also commented on some of my Tik Toks? Seems like I remember a Scott weighing in on some of the bottles I posted there. But you are right, it can be addictive.
Good evening, I just stumbled across your video. I was born in Palatka and spent most of my youth digging in dumps and diving in the St. John’s with my Father for bottles. Through the years we have found several Ackerman and Stewart , Jackson , Canova and many other Putnam county Bottles . I would love to have the opportunity To meet you . The history of Putnam particularly Palatka has been a passion of mine for years!!
Hey Josh, thank you for commenting. Yes, we can certainly meet in Palatka (I assume you still live here) to talk bottles. How does lunch sound sometime s at Nickos? Also, The Loeb-Hilburn home is the gift that keeps on giving. Although Chris and I have pretty well mined it out. My contact email is BL_gamewarden@hotmail.com
That metal detectorist saying "Never dug out" goes for digging too. I found my first Hutch "Waialua Soda Works " and a rare 1915 Motor Cycle tag. #8. And a 4 digit 1917 bicycle tag. A fragment of a Lovejoy shot glass, pre-Pro, $1,000- whole. I found a whole Hunyadi Janos in 2019. I brought one at a show with 80% of the label on it, complying with the 1906 Act. The "Tall, elegant" is an olive oil shape. Sometimes they are embossed, Californian ones are valuable. I've only found Bordeaux French ones, and a miniature 4.5" tall one.
Hey Tom, thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment. As far as metal detecting it is pretty much played out…but the bottles, I go on to film at least 6 or 7 more videos here. Got some great bottles…no Hutches, which is a head scratcher because it was the right era. Much appreciated…Bob Lee.
@@relicrescueusa3803 l forgot to mention that first Hutch was from a "Dug out" area, by guys with heavy equipment in the '80s. I found my only so far Swamp root there and a Konishi dose glass, and other goodies, as I used a sifting screen. No money there, though.
Gentleman 10, yes, and we now believe that the L.C. Canova druggist bottle to be extremely rare. As it turns out, Canova never had a drug store in Palatka. But more about that later. I’ll post another bottle hunt video from this same site in probably 3-4 weeks and will offer commentary on who Canova was. Next week is the video walking tour of the Loeb home. Thank you for watching...
Enjoyable video! Would have liked to have seen the stuff you talk about that you pulled from the hole along the way. I like your manner and style. Hope to see you continue the good work!
Thanks, spend most of my efforts on Tik Tok now, same name, more variety. FYI - I have several vids from the Carriage House dumps..,gift they kept on giving.
Many thanks, Howard. I hope to get the next two out with a 2-week gap in between. After that the summer heat will likely put a pause in my relic hunting. I’m not twenty-five anymore. That’s way back in my rear view mirror.
Hey Team Lynch, Glad you liked the video and thank you so much for watching. We have metal detected some. One 1938 Wheaty. We thought under the house would be good but because of numerous copper wires it made it too difficult. We do plan to go back and do a more extensive search. I’ll be checking your channel out later this evening and will definitely be subscriber. PS-The one thing we should have done for sure was bring a shaker box for the tailings.
Hey neighbor. Im just above in Al just found your channel. Seemed like a fun dig. Sharp and Dohme still egsists. They actually made one of the covid vaccines. I found a cobalt poison from them a while back. Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed the video.
A big shout out to Alabama Clockwork Gnome. The Sharp and Dohme was our first. I’m sure it was obvious by our animation that we find very few cobalts. A cobalt poison would be a keeper for sure. Good for you. Thank you for the kind comments.
Mr. Dale, many thanks for responding. Believe me if we find a privy we’ll sure dig it up. In Florida they don’t seem to be as productive as in the northern states...at least in my limited experience (I’ve only been doing this for 1.5 years.) Especially at a rural homesite...just about every one I’ve dug has been turned into a trash pit where there were multiple fires and tons of bricks thrown in. In any case, one never knows until they begin turning dirt. Again, I appreciate you taking the time to watch. Next week Chris and I take a break from digging bottles and do a walking tour of the Loeb-Hilburn House.
Sometimes you have to go down 3 to 7 foot there are many layers and they would clay cap them off in the old days then put newer stuff on top before covering it up
Thx! Florida, however, can be different, much deeper and we would have been underwater. All the digs at this site were old trash dumps. On higher ground one might find more depth. Appreciate you.

Appreciate the comments, Ghost Raven. I looked at some Stoddard flasks online and don’t believe it is a Stoddard. The Stoddard appears to have a different lip and a bit fuller in the body. Many thanks...
I'm not sure how accurate I am but I think most jars with the number 13 are considered rare because people would break them due to the fact that 13 was considered an unlucky number, I think ;)
Hey David, thanks for the info...Chris and I are hardly experts...so we’re learning as we go. I will certainly check on the rarity of that flask with the #13. We’ve decided that one goes to the homeowner, so we’ll be sure to let him know. Again, thank you for watching.
Hi Mike, Yes, the Loeb family was Jewish. In Palatka, in the 1880s, there were about 100 Jewish folks involved in various businesses. I just finished filming the virtual walking tour of the home yesterday. I plan to post it sometime next week. As part of this film, I interview the town historian where you will learn more about the Loeb family. Thank you for your comment.
awesome finds🙂 liked that swirly Lea & Perrins👍
Many thanks J Steel…appreciate you watching.
Just subscribed. Thank you for preserving our fragile Florida history.

Nice finds Bob! Hard to stop when you're finding old bottles. Keep the vid's coming!👍
Well done!
Thank you, Valerie.
@@relicrescueusa3803 Any time 😉👍
Love the local pharmacies.

Terrific spot to hunt. I would metal detector anyway, great bottles

Nice finds...You may want to really learn to probe for the privy's as they will produce much better than the scatter trash layers.

Looks good guys . Great age and a real good ratio of embossed to slicks judging from what you showed. Would that amber flask be a Stoddard flask ?

A lot of French stuff and the snail’s could be escargot?
That’s interesting. Thank you!
The big green bottle is a blob top, not cork top.
Hi Anthony, thank you for watching and for the the bottle ID. Most appreciated.
9:49 think that was a laxative water?
Thx! Appreciate you.
Were the Loeb family Jewish?
Pork ribs? If they were Jewish they sure didn't keep a kosher kitchen.
