I agree it’s extremely rare, although it was more of an isolated surface find found in pure white sand, partial exposed through erosion. Thx!I don't think anyone directly answered one question for you. That is definitely an iron pontil. Dates it 1860s or earlier pretty solidly. I think most of us put the pontiled pickles in the 1850s-1860s. Not my area of collecting so I can't help you more. It appears to be a fairly rare mold and it certainly appears to be in excellent condition for a dug bottle. Amazing to see something that big come out intact.
Congrats.
