The bottom says DEMING and has a single curved line on either side of the base leading to NM on the opposite of the other word.

I can clearly see that without a doubt my bottle is NOT old but a remake. Thanks a bunch for everyone's help in figuring it out. May be a crap bottle as far as cokes go but it still has a place on my shelf.

The circle is hard to read...might be M...or N...or...a squiggle. Either way I'm pretty sure its not as old as I thought.

Still a nice bottle, I eventually sold all my remakes off. The longer you collect the more pickier it seems you become.

I've gotten to the point where if I dig them, I only take a few back with me....I used to take everything home but ended up tossing over 100 bottles that just didnt have anything about it that was worth keeping. I like embossing or really neat shapes...ah well. Maybe some day...in another 50-100 years that coke might be worth 5 bucks, lol.

I sold mine off 2-3 years ago for $5.00 each.
