Hi there,I'm very new to this forum and bottles and just recently came across this no embossed bottle that has an open pontil at the bottom. The color appears to look olive green, brown or yellow depending on the angle when holding it to a light. It's also uneven on the neck part. I found the bottle at a flea market. Any help as to how old or if there is any value on the bottle. I would really appreciate any expert opinion. Thanks.

Can you please post a better pic of the pontil and a closer pic from about the shoulder up to the lip, at an angle that will show the seam on the shoulder? One more from the top looking into the mouth at a little bit of an angle?

I'm not really seeing a pontil, but that might just be the lighting in your pic.Lisa

[attachment=005.JPG] I'm very sorry but for some reason it didn't upload the Pontil Pic. I hope this is a clearer picture of the pontil. Thanks.

Hello;Looks to be a British beer bottle with sand pontil, Sand pontils were in use up to the early 1870s. Nice looking bottle, not worth much money wise, as they were made in vast numbers. Good find though. Dave
