Looking for Info on Mason Jar

[siu850959161]

Looking for any info anyone may have on this jar. I am assuming it is not a reproduction based on some of the features, but I don’t know much about jars. From what I’ve found it may be a #1644-1 in the Red Book. Thoughts? Is the 1644-1 described as being made in purple? Possible value?

Looks like a clear RB 1644 that has been zapped (irradiated).

So pretty much worthless?

Probably not far off. Someone might pay $10 as a decorator piece, but to a collector it ha little value.

zapped (irradiated) ..To me makes any bottle decrease way way down in value. So much so that I wouldn't even consider buying or trading a bottle if this has been done. Now it does happen naturally to give a nice little purple amethyst but when its done artificially like this has been then its ruined to me.
