TechnoCurious··on 132 year old message in a bottle found on West Australian beach
Does anybody know what material the bottle cap was made of? Since this was 1886 it couldn't have been plastic. Also I don't think any kind of metal (which most probably would have been non-stainless steel, copper or brass) would have survived the ocean and beach environments for that long.
