Dave & Shelley Dig Their Greatest Treasure Ever ...a $23,000 Bottle! 

I had to watch this again, it just makes me smile so much! 50 years of digging for bottles earned you the blessings. Some people may never find one but will watch this and know when they hit one of the holy grail bottles, the surprise and joy is so worth it & it may take them 50 years just never give up!

Shelley and I want to thank everyone for all of your wonderful comments and kindness. We have been so busy with family, car breakdowns, etc that we havent had time to respond personally to each comment, but we just want you to know we appreciate each and every one of you. We are all in this coronavirus pandemic together and will get through it by God's strength and be stronger than ever. It's a fight that we will win,so dont get discouraged. Please take all necessary precautions to stay safe. We will keep digging and posting videos to watch as long as we can. Keep the comments coming and we will try to get caught up as soon as we can. We love all of you and look forward to meeting as many of you as we can....God bless you!

Your humility is heartwarming. Awesome video. I just wanted to say thank you for sharing and also for the knowledge. 😁

I am addicted to your videos! I don’t even know how I found you but I am so happy I did! I am learning so much about bottles and glass. You both are awesome! Keep digging and sharing your story! 🙏🏼🤗♥️

Everyone should treat each other the way you two do. Thanks for sharing your joy - and your love.

I'm thrilled for you all! Shelley is a complete angel! It's a pleasure to watch two people so kind and loving toward each other find such a valuable treasure! Sell that thing and go on a nice cruise or island getaway with your family! Create memories! PS. I am from Woodbury NJ (pretty small town in South jersey) it was so cool to see a bottle from my hometown. ;)

I sometimes use a stick when working the dirt away from close to the bottle to avoid scratches.

Dave, you're not crowing, you're sharing your excitement!!! New Orleans like another planet, when you live in Wash. State! My goodness, I would have been doing a war dance with every bottle I dug!! Soooo interesting, the wonderful history, I fully share your enthusiasm. Glass gold!! Thanks you two, great fun, best, Carol

I enjoy watching your videos when you get behind making new ones I watch your old ones again

Love watching you dig for treasures!. Thanks for sharing....Janet from Ajax Ontario Canada.

Wow!!! Wow!!! How exciting! I enjoyed watching so much.

Like 410 ....you know you did Great. My best Pennsylvania finds have been Unlisted Historical Flasks and I had to sell them to pay the bills. I've been digging for over 40 years of my 50+ years of life. I am the boy on the 70s from PBS Venture North " History in a Bottle" TV program. Minnesota.

What a Beautiful Blessing 👍. Bless u Both n ur Family's .... 😇

Amen! That was a blessing!

I watched this whole video and enjoyed every minute of it! Congrats on that valuable bottle and the blue puff.

Congratulations on that epic bottle! Thanks for sharing Guys 😎

It is really neat to see two people who enjoy the same hobbies. I was never blessed with a partner that liked to venture out and find neat stuff. My thing was fossils. But I was down to dig for anything. But I had to do it alone. Take a few minutes to appreciate each other. I praise you both for (finding each other ) the GREATEST find ever.!!! MAY the. LORD. Keep you blessed !!

Dave, that is a wonderful bottle, I am so happy for you guys ! You guys deserve it for sure. Thanks for what you do . Bryan Kitchen / Houston Texas

Since this coronavirus....I been finding all kinds of channels thrifts store buying...garage sales ..dumpster divers... antique finds ... storage bins buying....and today I find you ...and I really wasn't looking for any of this....but I love it all....my bathroom has many old bottles ...God has made me happy by finding all these channels I love antiques and depression glass....I just love old things...I often asked God why I love old things....

Wowsers!!! Digger Dave you can sqawk away all you want on that one...and those blue ones you give to your son,that's amazing that you guys do that for him...and his/your family ☺️🙏🙏🙏live your God thanking ways,it's a blessing to to be able to watch you guys get all down in there and dirty🤪 . I'm from Canada,I've thought about digging in certain spots before,but never would i ever have thought to look in a spot where our outhouses used to sit.😷💩 Plus even with that knowledge,I look at those items you dig out of the dumps and privies and couldn't imagine my ancestors throwing away anything that ain't broke,or not reusing them and I had older cousin's that would cut off the tops of bottles and have glasses, or take a torch to the side of a stubby beer bottle and then with another bottle push it into the side of the heated bottle and make an indentation... Voilà ashtrays...😊 Just canning purposes alone I don't get it,seems like alot of people in your area had more money than they knew what to do with,backbone the day. And I thought that was a fairly knew thing in our world , but I grew up with parents who went through the depression,and their ways held fast,and now I find myself cringing at the waist I see in our world. Well God bless you all,and thanks for your incouragement to continue to pray for our world.🙏🙏🙏

My brother and I have been collecting bottles since we were kids. Thanks and congratulations on all your finds. God is good.

Wot a lovely couple infectious happy go lucky people . Love that you both love the hobby 👍👍

My wife and kids love to bottle dig too! We are in Pekin. You guys find some amazing bottles and relics! I dream of finding old bottles like you guys!

AWESOME! Congratulations on your great fortune, so nice to see good people have good fortune.

That pontiled med bottle you guys got is a find of a life time. Your channel is the greatest bottle digging channel out their. Keep on posting and stay safe.

Great to see you guys thanking God for what you find. I don't talk as much about my faith in my videos but try to pray before each dig. It's just a blessing to be healthy enough to get out and dig, all the good finds are just a bonus!

Congrats on the awesome bottle! The good lord sure blessed you on that dig! You two sure make a great team and I love how grateful you are for everything. That is refreshing to see. Stay safe and keep those bottle coming!

Nicest holes I have ever seen anyone dig in. Beautiful recoveries, and not in over your heads. Congratulations on the Mickeljon. 1st one I have ever seen.

Wow...that's what's great about our hobbies. Whether it be bottle digging, relic hunting, hunting Native American artifacts. When you start your hunt you just never know what treasure you might come home with that day. Congrats to you both and Dave after 50+ years of digging you deserve that one. I could tell when you first saw it, it was a good one by your reaction. Well done!

never thought I would see somebody pull that Mickeljohn..wow.. god blessed you with that one

That’s awesome!! You guys deserve it. Dave, I’ve met you at a couple of bottle shows. I could sit and listen to you talk about bottles all day long

I'm so happy for your treasures that you dug! I lived in New Orleans for several years in the 90s. The humidity is unbearable. And it's not even the hottest season yet. The bugs are always horrible. Bless you for digging and sharing your adventures with us. We love your videos, especially now when we are shut in trying to stay safe and healthy.

Got my attention...I do what you do...ive spent hours digging through 100 year old or 80 years at least personal and community dumps... Very COOL .I wanted to say those bottles with the tops broken off would make good water glasses,.I just need to get one of those bottle cutters thy used to sell.

Shovelling Shelly is a good sport! Getting down and dirty! So nice when you come up all clean and polished!

I love old bottles, I'm going to start digging! I'm happy for you both for a simple enjoyment! ☮️💟

Incredible find, guys! Number 12 on the list of the 25 most desired pontil medicines!! I've bought from you over the years - always great to work with. As a digger & collector, I'm so happy for you!

Hi Dave and Shelly. In London ,England, there is a Mudlarker who cuts and polishes embossed bottles that he often finds on the river Thames foreshore which he then sells on Etsy. I think his video channel is called luck in the muck and his name is Si. I just thought that you might like to take a look !! Greetings from Wolverhampton in The West Midlands. xxxxxxxx

I love this video. I am a lover of old bottles myself. I dont have but a old aspirin and Budweiser bottle. Great finds and I would love to have any of them.😍😍😍😍🥰

Holy crap you guys sure know how to dig a hole. Amazing bottles, plus you're both bad ass, as tired as you were, you had the perseverance to keep working it. Just congrats on the best bottle ever of your life. You and other RU-vidrs have got me going now and I've just got permission to investigate my property which is about 120 years old. Not exactly sure what I'm looking for but I've got some ideas. Suggestions are welcome. Will keep you posted. Keep the vids coming, looking forward to the next one you talked about. Luv from Asheville

Poor Shelly is burned! Poor thing! May God Bless you with many, many more bottles you both deserve it!! Thank you for sharing this with us!
