Do you ever find Indian artifacts? Arrowheads and hammers?
Also, where do you sell these? I would like to buy one. eBay?
just put up a question/comment hope you get to read it
I dare ya to just once make a video title that doesn't scream CLICKBAIT
Do u get to keep what you find??
My 81 year old mother just loves watching your channel on her television. I arrived to help take care of her this week and my mom is suffering from beginning dementia. I introduced her to your channel just today. My mom now takes notes while you describe items you find. She is able to interact with you speaking out loud and she'll turn to me and ask questions. She remembers her father collecting and digging bottles in Stockton, CA in the 1950's. We appreciate how you always label every find you dig up along with the history. She gets a kick how you say, "Wow"! She laughs anytime you say it. Thank you for all you do!! ❤ It's truly a new activity for us to do together as well..
I really never imagined I'd find myself watching a guy dig up glass bottles from pits, but wow the things he finds. This episode was just incredible.
as a kid i wanted to see this but whit dinosour bones now i am happy whit 150 year old junk
Same here! I also love Adventure archaeology and southern diggers.
half of it comes for the stuff he says about the piece and history on it
the backup research makes it nice
Love to hear your delight and enthusiasm despite being up to your elbows in old poop, while going on with identifying old bottles! 🎉
It must feel amazing to be rewarded for all your hard work in researching where to dig and to actually dig. Finds of a lifetime.
haha of course. its always such a happy, calming feeling on the drive home after a great dig. hard to explain, but.. everything just feels good! thanks for watching and commenting
The Germany bottle and the crock were amazing finds. I so enjoy your videos...keep on digging...🥰🥰
The videos are interesting and calming to watch. You are connecting to a past that is unfortunately disappearing. Thank you, Tom, and keep digging!!!🙂
Nice original content. Never knew I was fascinated with antique bottles until I came across your channel. This is everything CZcams should be.
I really appreciate how you share your knowledge of the finds and the history of the area you are digging into.
thanks! glad you like it. we really appreciate you watching and commenting
What I love:
Understated passion; “Wow”
Encyclopedic knowledge
Organization of information
On the way out; showing itself (anthropomorphism)
Respect, Commitment & Dedication
Aesthetics
Oddity
My dad was born in Valley City in 1925, and my grandfather in Mandan in 1892, it's so fascinating watching your unearth such items in their old 'hood.. Bravo man, bravo.
That's what I'm talking about. When I was digging in the late sixties early seventies, that's the age we dug and earlier. Great dig. Thank you for the memories.
haha yeah. this is the age i would prefer to dig all the time lol. you just never know until your at the bottom. This weird thing happens around here where when we dig a pit, there is stuff thats like 20 years newer at the very top, and then all of the sudden it just drops 20 years in age. wonder if you noticed that? thanks for watching and commenting
@@BelowthePlains yes. Definitely notice. Never can wait till you get to the bottom of the hole. We've dug some places like that. Thanks for responding.
Congratulations on finding such a good spot.
I'm in my 60's and I'd still like to get out and go digging again. It is the most fun you can have with your clothes on!
Two new episodes this week! this is probably one of my favorite digs. That stoneware German water bottle was amazing, you dont often find those in one piece
haha yeah that thing is amazing. ive only found a few in my life. glad you like the double feature. two more out next weekend. and MAYBE 2 the week after
👋 Tom and hi 👋 jake another good video you would not think that there had been people living there looking at the surrounding areas if it wasn't for you pair digging those old outhouse pits and finding all those bottles telling the history of early settlers and for a bonus finding the rare bottles specially 4of them well done all the best Andrew south wales uk 👍 👌 😀 🇬🇧
all of you brits are so damn nice! it honestly warms my heart that you guys care about american history! i gotta get out there someday. and thank you, thats really kind! and thanks for watching and for always leaving a comment. we really appreciate it
Love your digs
I love watching to see what you dig up next, but also show us something a little different about your life. Show us how you get the glass home without breaking. Show us how you clean everything, and Show us your personal collection. I love the show!
Beautiful Area of the country..AND THAT CROCK! Very Nice.
These pits were treasures, I hope you are able to dig the whole area. Congratulations on the finds. Thank you.
Wow, these two pits were amazing. It’s so wonderful that you are uncovering so much lost history.
What a great area to be able to dig in! The history of the town is what made it so special, it burned down before any of the pit's would have been dipped and cleaned out. I hope you find more in that area, this site is historical for sure!
Digging that second pit, the soil is gorgeous! No wonder the corn in the next field looks so great!
I love your finds! They are fantastic!
Good to see you back so soon. Awesome early finds. Be safe and best of luck with future digs. 👍
haha thanks! and yes of course. should be a two-parter next weekend. im thinking friday and saturday. we saved all the good videos for this time of year. thanks for watching
Amazing finds! I’m happy for you. Love your videos
Thank you, thats very kind. we appreciate that
Amazing dig Tom. This is what you’ve been digging for all this time. I’m just glad to see it.
80 years ago, my folks bought an old farmhouse in a small town near Portland, OR. Dad filled in an old cistern and a well and an old outhouse. He used bricks and rocks and garbage etc. We lived in that house for 20 years and then moved to a newer home and sold the land. I imagine now what was in those old holes before he did the rest of the filling. Actually, there was one missed that my horse stepped in and both back legs went in. Luckily, she was able to pull herself out without injury. When I see all the treasures you pull out I think back and know there must have been old bottles and such. There is an apartment now standing where our old farm house used to be.
Your channel is so calming…
I could sit here all day and watch you pull amazing little treasures from the dirt…
❤❤❤
Incredible “holy grail” finds ! All the research and experience really is rewarding! I look forward to the next discoveries. Congratulations.
Kerry
This is one of the coolest history digs I've every seen. I love hearing you talk about "Grails."
Thank you young man for such wonderful digs, I get so excited with you and your digs, the archeology is right down my alley, I can have fun and you do all the work, hope your profit is to your liking. Lots of love.Afriend.
Congratulations on your great finds, and also for putting out such well produced, well shot and beautifully edited content. I watch a few of you treasure hunters, and am always impressed with your production value. Keep up the good work, and thanks for sharing all the fun you're having with us - your viewers.
Congratulations on these wonderful pieces! I so much enjoy your videos and your excitement is contagious!
Continue the hard work, we will continue learning about glass bottles and American history! So interesting! Thank you!
I really enjoy your videos. Several years ago my company was excavating a site downtown for a new building going up. I found several bottles and little crocks. The excavator operator kept getting mad at me because I would stop him every time I saw something. At another job we found a lot of Indian pottery from a local tribe that was in the area centuries ago.
Thanks for unearthing the past.
haha thanks for watching and commenting!
So interesting! You know so much about these. And to research where to dig, just amazing.
Thanks,Tom and your production crew!!! The camera person is very good....Every find is well recorded..No shaking and well centered.... Congratulations for the Holy Grail finds!!!!🕊️😎
St Petersburg, Florida sez Howdy...
WOW! ONE OF THE CRAZIEST FINDS YET!
haha thanks for watching and commenting!
It’s amazing what the earth is holding on to. I love that crock what a great find.
I love how you show what it was used for. Much appreciated!
Tom and Jake that was an epic location. You found so many rare and unique items. The Redwing crock was my favorite. Congratulations!🤩👏👏👍
Amazing, as usual, I Love seeing items from my home state of Michigan, Thank You Tom!
I hollered "YES!" 🙌when you rolled that Redwing 3 Gallon crock over to reveal the gorgeous Bee-sting insignia on the front. Seriously ❤ I hope it gets pride of place... cheers from the Yukon🍁
Can I just say WOW! Awesome finds. Congratulations, on all your hard work paying off.
Wow so cool! That second pit was a lot of fun for me. Growing up near redwing minnesota...that crock is a beauty. My grandmother immigrated from Prussia, how cool to see the mineral water bottle.She traveled as a young girl,with her family, all over the Midwest working as migrant farmers. Eventually marrying my grandfather whos family owned a farm in ND. The family still farms large scale crop acreage near Makoti, where the original soddy is still preserved. Oh how I'd love to see you dig there. Love love your channel.
I lived with my grandma in the mid 70's (middle school ) in s. Red Wing ( base of s. Hwy. 53 ) great geographical area I know the landscape well. meticulously meticulously 😊😊
Amazing bottles. The stone crock was awesome. Love the coffin flask
All was awesome Tom. Cant wait till the next one
I watch all of your videos, but the pits that date to before 1890 are always the best. that older stuff is just so damn pretty compared to to the stuff that came later on. its kinda weird how the bottles seemed to get less ornate as time went on. probably because of manufacturing reasons but still
thank you! i really appreciate that! and yeah thats basically exactly why. mass productioin, sadly. thanks for watching and commenting!
This is the most interesting pit with so much stuff, amazing!
Wow, awesome dig! I about lurched out of my seat when I saw that Hamburger Tropeen bottle- I've got one just like it! It was in a trash pit along the Ohio River that I dug up when I was a kid.
I love that you show the pieces all cleaned up at the end. I bet you really dig you're work lol!
haha yeah i do! and glad you noticed about the bottles at the end. we always get comments from people asking us to show them cleaned up lol. thanks for watching and leaving us a comment
Thanks so much really enjoy watching your digs. Keep on digging.👍🏻
Thanks for watching!

Wow!! That crock!! I'd love to find an old ink bottle. Would be lovely with my fountain pen collection.
Wow, that was fun! I really enjoy your channel. These digs are always so interesting.
Thanks for the info. I'll watch a few more of your videos. I'm not ready to start another hobby, but this is interesting.
hahaha i know what you mean! in the winter time i always try to find something to do to bide by time and learn some skills... learning how to do photoshop and learning how to make hemp jewelry. gonna start using some of this old broken glass as beads. well i hope you enjoy the videos!
Love the work you do! My father is from Yankton and through your videos I found out that Peter and Theresa Huber are my Great Great Grandparents!!

Lot of good and different things this time. Great find. Congrats.😊
Thank you! yeah it was a good dig, i just with they could all be this good. thanks for watching
I enjoy your videos. You find some cool stuff. Makes me wish I was younger, lol living in the Southwest I imagine there’s some cool places to dig around here.
Surprisingly interesting video. It's weird to think about someone a couple hundred years from now digging through the dirt and getting excited about finding my old discarded pickle jars, Coke bottles, etc.
This is the best digging channel on utube. You are well on your way to become America’s Next Top Bottle Millionaire.
amazing soda bottles. That crock is spectacular. Fantastic dig!!
Ok, this is addictive to watch! Love it!
What a excellent post , with descriptions,
I enjoy your videos very much! Keep digging! 😃
How exciting! I enjoy watching the things you find. The history is interesting!
Congrats guys on such amazing digs!
haha thank you! and thanks for watching and commenting
I love your bottle expertise, very impressive! I think I’ve been to Askjem, Norway. It’s in the area southwest of Oslo, if I remember right.
Thank you…GREAT FINDS …I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL. ❤❤🇨🇦. YOU ARE SOOO KNOWLEDGEABLE!!
hahah thank you! glad you like the channel, we really appreciate it!!!
Very cool dig, some great finds
Wow ! Great dig... and informative too
Thanks for the twofer Tom.
haha thanks for watching (both)
Never seen you dig a cistern before. I have a filled in cistern under my kitchen. It would be interesting to dig it. Locally the owners of Isabel Blooms former home dug the cistern and found treasures. Original sculptures she made. This was a very enjoyable dig to watch. The OH pit as well. Thx for sharing.
Wonderful but short with reward of good bottles congratulations
Awesome finds ! Amazing the history there .
I’m addicted to this channel. I’ve dug up lots of bottles. I do worry about old germs in those pits.
Congratulations 👏👏👏👏 Love you're videos Thanks for sharing your awesome video ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🇺🇸🗝️
hahah thank you! we really appreciate the comment
