Found an interesting bottle

Transplanted a tree yesterday. The first new location, I asked my wife to eye-ball the tree as I rotated it. She tells me she meant for me to plant it a foot over. While digging the new hole I found this about 2.5 feet down.

Jesse Moore-Hunt, 1876 - 1903. Near as I can tell, the amber "San Francisco" Kentucky whiskey was bottled in the early 1890's. Right around the time Washington became a state (1889), and at least a decade before Camas (where I live) became Camas.

Do I go back out and dig more holes?
 
If you found other garbage, digging might be warranted, otherwise, sell that sucker and buy cigars. Looks like its worth $2-400 retail.
 
That is a cool find and wow did it clean up nice for being burried in the ground for that long. I would dig some more, shit you may find a full one...LOL
 
Nice find. Google is your friend on this one, not a bad return on investment, LOL.
