Need help aging this if anyone has a good estimate I’d love to hear. I believe it must be from between 1867-1900. I’m hoping someone can narrow that down with their knowledge. It came along way from Providence, RI to being found by me in New Smyrna Beach intracoastal waters. Any other cool info about would be greatly appreciated

Looks to be 1890's. The early ones have the patent date embossed on the base.

This style Rumfords was used from the 1890s-1910s. The newer ones are machine made and the older style has the patent date embossed on the base.
