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.

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.

Love to hear your delight and enthusiasm despite being up to your elbows in old poop, while going on with identifying old bottles! 🎉

Nice original content. Never knew I was fascinated with antique bottles until I came across your channel. This is everything RU-vid should be.

I really appreciate how you share your knowledge of the finds and the history of the area you are digging into.

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.

👋 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 👍 👌 😀 🇬🇧

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

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.

Thanks for unearthing the past.

These pits were treasures, I hope you are able to dig the whole area. Congratulations on the finds. Thank you.

Amazing finds! I’m happy for you. Love your videos

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.

Wow, these two pits were amazing. It’s so wonderful that you are uncovering so much lost history.

Good to see you back so soon. Awesome early finds. Be safe and best of luck with future digs. 👍

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!

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.

WOW! ONE OF THE CRAZIEST FINDS YET!

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!

Your channel is so calming… I could sit here all day and watch you pull amazing little treasures from the dirt… ❤❤❤

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🍁

YAY! Another treasure hunt!

Incredible “holy grail” finds ! All the research and experience really is rewarding! I look forward to the next discoveries. Congratulations. Kerry

I'm blown away by the age and the finds man!!! Thar crock is insane!!! Those DT bottles absolutely crazy!! Congrats!!!!

This is one of the coolest history digs I've every seen. I love hearing you talk about "Grails."

So interesting! You know so much about these. And to research where to dig, just amazing.

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

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...

It’s amazing what the earth is holding on to. I love that crock what a great find.

This is the most interesting pit with so much stuff, amazing!

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.

Amazing dig Tom. This is what you’ve been digging for all this time. I’m just glad to see it.

I love that you show the pieces all cleaned up at the end. I bet you really dig you're work lol!

This is the best digging channel on utube. You are well on your way to become America’s Next Top Bottle Millionaire.

You always, always, amaze us! Thanks SO much!!!!!!

What a great Red Wing Crock!! I really enjoy your videos!! Thank you 💕

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.

Great Dig's ! Your Excitement and Enthusiasm really come through on your vids.

Amazing bottles. The stone crock was awesome. Love the coffin flask All was awesome Tom. Cant wait till the next one

This is probably among the best digs I have seen yet on RU-vid.

Some nice early items! Always exciting videos! ! Regards UK.

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 all of the rare finds.

Thanks for the adventure Tom!

Thanks for the twofer Tom.

I love how you show what it was used for. Much appreciated!

Thank you…GREAT FINDS …I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL. ❤❤🇨🇦. YOU ARE SOOO KNOWLEDGEABLE!!

Can I just say WOW! Awesome finds. Congratulations, on all your hard work paying off.

Thanks so much really enjoy watching your digs. Keep on digging.👍🏻

It's very thought-provoking to consider that the last hands to touch each of these artifacts were the hands of people in the 1880s...your hands are the first ones on these pieces since then. Fascinatng!

Love the redwood find!

Amazing, as usual, I Love seeing items from my home state of Michigan, Thank You Tom!

Amazing finds! You always make my day with your videos! Much love from Louisiana .❤❤

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!

Congrats guys on such amazing digs!

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.

I’m addicted to this channel. I’ve dug up lots of bottles. I do worry about old germs in those pits.

What's really fascinating is for me as a European that you guys are fascinated by a bottle that's only 150 years old. But now living in Australia I understand how important that little bit of history is to some people👍🏻

I look for you guys every week, can’t get enough ❤,

Great dig!! Love it!!😍😍😍💖

Tom and Jake that was an epic location. You found so many rare and unique items. The Redwing crock was my favorite. Congratulations!🤩👏👏👍

This was fun to watch. What kid hasn't dreamed of finding buried treasure?

Really enjoy your digs love the history you present.

Thx for sharing yet another fabulous dig!!!!

So amazing! Thanks for the video!

Cool finds, love your excitement!

I'm fascinated with the depths you go to dig up bottles! I'm especially fascinated when you dig up other random pieces of earthenware and random items! The bottles are cool, but I look forward to all the other stuff! Lol!

I wish you could come to my home in Cottage Grove Minnesota and dig up my backyard!! You are a passionate human who truly appreciates the common eras of our country. When things were "real."

This channel is the reason I stay up all night. Got to be the best channel on RU-vid.

Really great find in this one. That rain really brought out the color on those hutches! thanks for sharing

Ok, this is addictive to watch! Love it!

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.

Thank you. 😊

Congratulations 👏👏👏👏 Love you're videos Thanks for sharing your awesome video ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🇺🇸🗝️

You do great videos, super neat quick information. Awesome stuff.

From Billings Mt and I used to love looking at old homestead near Roundup and the Mussel Shell years ago. Nice to see this. :)

I look so forward to each episode of your videos. I feel like I'm right there with you.

Well done Tom and team great to watch really exciting you really do your homework and it pays off

Really cool to watch you find all these things,cheers from NZ

Awesome find! I am from Saginaw, Michigan

I'm so glad you got that awesome soda bottle all your hard work has payed off

Really enjoy seeing everything cleaned up at the end!

❤❤ it amazes me the different types you find

I enjoy your videos very much! Keep digging! 😃

I’m a British digger. Although I don’t dig much these days. I like watching your videos. Did the US never use Codd bottles? With the marble in the neck? Or the two tone stone ginger beers? We get Codds all the time over here. But the stone gingers are harder to come by. Cheers! I’m busy working my way through your videos. I’ve always loved bottles. I first dug for bottles in 1981 when I was just 11 years old. Now I’m 53!👍🇬🇧

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!!

The big crock and coffee pot are amazing. Keep up the good work. Be safe.

Wow, that was fun! I really enjoy your channel. These digs are always so interesting.

Great video and legendary finds. Love watching and wishing I was digging with you. Keep digging brother!!

Congrats on your amazing digs!!

Wow ! Great dig... and informative too

Congratulations Tom, what an epic video to watch. I am sure there are some collector's that are not feeling quite the same!! LOL

How exciting! I enjoy watching the things you find. The history is interesting!
