Ted,
I'm quite sure as big as that dump appears that there is some more gold in there. Congrats!

Re: 5th alarm!
Is that Schmidt’s oval label cone tough ? Can’t recall seeing those .. I found a Menominee come when I went to UP thought it was cool as it reminded of Chad found from the old stories

Re: 5th alarm!
No it’s a pretty easy can, however it’s not found as often as the crowntainers. I’ve only found the red can once before and it was totally roasted so this is a pleasant surprise

Not sure what I was talking about with crowntainers but schmidts never made them. Was confused with altes.

Re: 5th alarm!
Hey Ted,
Awesome!!!! This is what you've been waiting for!!! Good job in looking across the road!!!
The rust looks like the kind that will wash off like dirt, if you leave them in acid longer. (minimum of 3 hours)
Try it, you might be very pleasantly surprised!
After finishing the big dump, be sure to circle farther out into the woods, for any hidden, smaller dumps, can't hurt,
and you might find some older cans too.
I'm not trying to be a butthead, just offering some friendly advice.

Re: 5th alarm!
Thanks! I actually did look around after I packed the final bag of cans and only found a few scattered hoff brau flats. The area this dump is in is small and surrounded by wetlands.conesplus wrote: ↑Mon May 14, 2018 11:03 pm Hey Ted,

Re: 5th alarm!
Batch #1
Super happy with how majority of these turned out. Got a few stragglers sitting overnight. Super happy about the bock! I figured I’d find one sooner or later because I find the regular ones often. The red top was a complete mystery can with only a part of the D showing. I’m getting really good at identifying cans with little paint. Top left goebel is from Oakland. My 3rd time dumping that can. Many of these will be upgrades. Red top is a new can altogether. Blatz is a weird blue??

Re: 5th alarm!
Regarding Blue Blatz: it is one of two things. first, it could be some sort of weird discoloration being in the ground for so long, but I am betting option number two: you found a blue Christmas Blatz can!

Re: 5th alarm!
Yep. All from 1 dump. Got 2 more batches cooking now with several fast cleaners drying. I have at least 16 new/upgrades so far. Pretty amazing.
This pfeiffer is definitely a paint over.

I’ve never seen the red bocks around either. Makes me wonder if the other 5 are in a campers trash pit nearby?
