OK guys I need some help. I'm helping some people sort through their fathers bottle collection. There's stuff from all over but one in particular I need help with. I believe it is a Masonic Lafayette Flask. Dark green, plenty of bubbles, nice sharp pontil. Any idea what it's worth? Yes I know, pictures, pictures, pictures. I wasn't thinking there was going to be anything worth pics. Thanks
Jay

hi Jay, from what you describe you may have a good one there. I believe it may be a GI-83 or GI-84 Lafayette Masonic flask and either one would fetch about 7 to 10,000 dollars depending on condition.If you ever consider selling please keep me in mind as I collect historical flasks.Thanks,Kevin

Does the flask have corrugated edges or are the sides smooth?
