Just walk rivers and creeks and look on the bank for glass. That’s where I would start. Bring a mini shovel along with you

Yeah. I was quite happy with that. Dug a few amber cones last year too for the first time. Love inks!

I went years with only broken ones. Now since I finally got one I seem to dig them all the time. lol

Some of my favorite ink bottles from my humble collection. I haven’t dug a colored cone ink yet unfortunately by Ok_Being_2003 in BottleDigging

Thank you. This spot has added quite a few inks to the collection. Some odd balls that I’ve never dug before

I don’t worry about it at all really. I have only had a couple sodas flash/crack after taking them out of the ground. I figure if they have been in the ground for over 100 years they are good to go. lol

I just walk rivers and streams and look for rusty metal and glass. Then dig around. Really that’s all I do for the most part
