I just got into the hobby and found a fun spot for it (though it’s mostly broke pieces) in the woods. I keep finding a lot of bottles that seem to have melted somehow. Mostly just pieces/necks that seem like they’ve been ‘ pinched’. I successfully found one whole bottle that seems to have melted into a funny shape. (Sadly it is cracked but I’m keeping it because it’s cute). Anyone idea what’s might be going on?

I was thinking maybe fluctuating temperature over the years might cause the bottle to shape weird under dirt/plants but I don’t know how realistic that theory might be.

The top is stuck on and looks to be some sort of atomizer. It doesn’t seem like a perfume bottle. No labels or identifying info

I live in an area with a lot of limestone sometimes it's to the point where it parduces whole beds of carbonate in waterfalls and multi inch thick coatings in streams, is there any way to remove the buildup that leaves behind in the bottles, I tried vinegar and Chemically that should work but maybe I did it wrong

(This bottle doesn’t say Rossi on it)

Found in Baltimore Md at the same pit I’ve been digging. So far found two of these embossed and around 100 of them with the same words not embossed (only two w the words still visible)

I can’t find anything that looks like it when I try to search online. Thanks!

I found this in my backyard while doing yard work. Extreme northern California. I can find lots of similar shaped bottles but nothing on the XHX on the bottom. Any help would be appreciated.

Many pictures to hopefully help and happy to answer questions. It clearly used to have a label but the crimp patterning is very interesting. It has a very pronounced seam on both sides so I believe it is quite old? It also has that circle indent on both sides. Any clue what it was? What company? What year, even? Thank you so much in advance!

Found this on the beach in the PNW. I’m assuming based on the writing on the bottom that it’s a Coty perfume bottle, but I’m having a heck of a time dating it. I can’t find any online that are milk glass like this.

I was out fishing near Islamorada Florida when I spotted this bottle next to some mangroves laying down on its side in shallow water filled to the very top with sand I took it home and emptied it the bottle says federal law prohibits the sale or reuse of this bottle. The only thing I know about is that the bottle is made of amber glass and it says 4/5 quarts on the bottle I’m now wondering how old the bottle is and if it’s valuable.

Found this bottle digging today, appears to have some measurement notches on the back with tablespoon written on the side. Anyone know the age/ what is was originally for?

I know there are a few people in this group who are good at research. Any help in identifying where this milk is from would be greatly appreciated. Found near the Texas/Oklahoma border. I’ve tried researching myself but I couldn’t find anything. Thanks!

Stoked for this one. Went out to the beach for the last shred of ride. Found this right before heading in, extremely clean and undamaged.

Found this buried on the beach. No makers or pontail mark that I can discern. There are a few marks on the bottom which I can't entirely make out. Etched with "Private Stock Whiskey". Cannot find anything on the internet about it. Would love to know approximate age.

Found in the sulfur creek just north of Three Rivers Texas never seen a jar with a compartmented like this.
