Hello Rocky,

You are correct, my bottle is the same. That site was close to the Detroit River. Lots more to dig in that area, you just have to look over your shoulder once in a while if you venture further up the road.

Tom should post a photo of his bottles that he took home. He had some pretty good ones.

I think I have one of those hundai mineral waters with a label that I recently picked up from a construction worker in a attic find. I'll try and post it tonight, or tomorrow at the latest.

Yeah Detroit is a great place to dig. I don't know the area very well. I dig down there as a guest of Tom(aka Treasure Hunt) and Bill(aka Drugistnut or what we call him "Wild Bill") The Detroit area has some great potential because of its age and the number of empty houses and lots. You just have to know where you are going and be aware of your surroundings just like Saginaw and Flint, two other places with potential.

I live in Bay City, the town dates to around 1850, but the population didn't take off until the mid 1860's. Good bottles to be found here, but not very many empty lots or empty houses. To dig here you have to knock on doors or dig at construction sites.
