Hi Kim I also have that bottle, the embossing is different on the bottom however, the one I have has the following...B&Co Ld K 1838.... Zumalts book pg76 says: There has been reported nine different variants of embossing on this style bottle. An Australian import and very desireable but no information available. Values range depending on embossing. All are scarce in the U.S. Approx. size 14 1/2" 12 Sided mine is also green like yours the book says aqua anyway hope this helps some... Taz

$4 sounds like a good price, that's a good looking bottle.

oz-riley's right, sadly for such a nice looking bottle they are very common in all the different variations.

They're common in Australia but how common are they in the states? I wonder if an 'exchange program' could work? We'll send you some 'common' U.S. cures and foods in exchange for 'common' Aussi's! I believe the champion might sell well over on this side of the pond, it's an attractive bottle.
