    If you ever consider starting a merch line, shirts that read "This Pit is Loaded!" would definitely reflect the spirit of not only the channel, but your enthusiasm as well.

    About that bottle at 2:25, 604 Front street is still there, an old building that is now a coffee shop in Fargo ND.

    While doing some excavating and levelling we found an old cistern from the original log cabin on our property. The old folks used the cistern as a dump when they moved to the new house. We found lots of small bottles from around 1900 as well as large brandy bottles exactly like the ones you dug in this video and lots of broken china. Also some rusted pieces of farm equipment and a hand pump from the cistern. We were very excited with our find.

    I am always impressed by how much you find that came from Ohio. It helps to illustrate how industrial production followed settlement and supported new settlement. If you dig the oldest pits on the east coast, you would find stuff from England. If you dig the oldest pits in western PA and Ohio, you will find stuff made on the east coast. As you dig the oldest pits in the upper midwest, you find stuff made in Ohio, etc....

    The label art would look good on shirts if you decide to supplement your budget with t-shirts, hats, mugs, and stickers/mouse pad. Old(looking) magnets would sell like crazy! Hope the idea comes to fruition and helps with funding the adventure! (I'm sure you guys have thought of it or heard of it before, but using bottle label art would look awesome!)

    Another fine dig, a lot of suprise bottles with good age. You, young men do a very good job of finding and explaining, thanks for all your precise knowledge on your fines, every time you get a real good find your voice rases and it get a little gitty, so inturn I get the same felling. Thanks for all your te and energy, it's a pleasure watching you explore. Be safe, much love. Afriend.

    I was using my grandparents open privvy for years as a kid. Stone built/stone slated outhouse , open to the elements at the back. A small wooden hole for us kids & a larger wooden seat for adults. This was the early '70's in the uk , in what was the real country. J&G Meakins mid century designs are the moneymakers here.
    Great finds .
    Love the channel :)

      How do you look at thr land and decide where treasures my hide? I've got a few acres that used to be part of a large estate and plant nursery. I t s said that a previous owner had buried money on the property. The front if the land seems rippled as though it was once plowed. So we put a garden up front. We took a metal detector and found a copper rod that looked as though it were a marker, and also a small copper know. No ideaxwhat it was for. Before my purchase, it had been a dumping ground also used for hunting. The middle section is flat and then slopes downhill ending in a dry pond. It once held water and the p.ots were flooded until the government diverted the c water flow. But most of the flat levels are rippled, with a few mysterious holes , dips or sink holes. What would I look for to find treasure? There are strategically placed oak and pecan trees. Plus one spot with an oak stump, trash and evidence of a burn pit. Any info would be appreciated.

    We found quite a few of the Hostetter bitters. A little older, they were the green ones. Some amber but mostly the green. Always loved finding those. Also, the Avan Hoboken bottles. The Hobokens were harder to find but found usually the same sites. Most found in San Francisco bay area. I miss it. Nice. Thanks.
