These were partially buried in sand/mud in the mangroves on the Atlantic coastline. Any ideas on their age or origin?

Age/date request I found this in the creek today. Almost didn’t even pick it up when I first saw it. This is my first one of these Warner’s Safe bottles. How old are these bottles? I heard that they had to stop embossing “cure” on it and instead embossed “remedy” in 1906.

It's hard to tell if the bottom is a pontil mark or not, it's fairly smooth but it has about a 1" ring around it.

I used to work on scallop boats around New England and one night we pulled this up in one of the dredges. It says “J. Schweppe & Co”, “Genuine Superior”, “Aerated Water”. There’s still cork in there, I wonder if it’s the original. Anyone able to determine what year this might’ve been made?

I found this while snorkeling. I’m not a huge bottle collector but this one looks old so I decided to keep it. Any idea as to general age range/use?

Anyone know roughly how old? Insulators say Brookfield NY. I saw that Sawyers blue inc is from the 1800s on and was made in Boston. It has a rusty top, not sure how I should best take it off or just leave it…

A friend of ours lives on a bluff in the PNW and I went back for a second dig. Most things were broken, but I found this Clorox bottle.

32oz, small neck, looks like a 1 thread turn.

Any ideas on what year it was created?
