Gold ring and glass

[birdman]

Hi all ,I found my first gold of the year,a small childs 14k ring . It has pretty good weight for being so small. The neatest thing I uncovered was a small beach dump. My excal hit a old piece of brass and when I got down about a foot I spied some glass. I started digging and ended up with several in the same area. I ended up with a two foot hole by about 4 feet. Tons of broken stuff but there was a few still in one piece.
Thanks for looking and HH.

Very cool finds!!

A search found reference to J T Brown apothecary in Boston dated early 1850's. Would guess the addition of sons would date it just a little later. Nice old bottles!
Cheers,

Very cool finds! I really enjoyed researching that J.T. Brown company; there sure is a lot of history on it!

I'm not sure if like finding silver more, or finding stuff with writing on it. Writing always leads to major internet research! Must be the geek in me coming out. lol

Good luck in that area that you have there, it seems to be full of OLD stuff!!! Go slow!
