My bottle has a # on it that says D-105529 when I went to that sight it said that this bottle was made from 1948-1951, for the 6 oz. 1951-1958 for the 6.5 oz. and the 12 oz. was, I think 1970's (in reply to vnovakane) Post #: 3

Second number is bottle mold number. But, at some point in time Coke flipped the numbers, where the mold number is first and year second. You can use the first method you used-it is a Pat D bottle made from 1948-1951, then look at numbers and figure it out. (in reply to vnovakane) Post #: 4
