BeachComber,
Thanks a lot for info. We call these bottles "cucumbers" here and it is common Crimean War find. The rarity and value is necessary just to have a general idea how to divide the finds with the buddy [:D]
Actually I've spend a couple of days with google and various catalogues from abcrauctions.com, trying to find same torpedo bottle but nothing with "Malta" at all. No even similar from this country in the net.
Hi!
Found this torpedo-hamilton bottle in Sevastopol/Crimea at English camp sight of Crimean War ( 1854-56) period. Most interesting - Malta manufactured. How rare and valuable it is? Thanks!
