Here is one of my favorites. A Charleston S.C. bottle with a ground pontil.

Very nice Road Dog. What do you mean by "ground pontil" though? Is that the same as iron or graphite? Pettydigger

Ground , Graphite , Iron, Improved. Sorry, I use a different one each time. Bottle folks probably prefer Graphite. Scar from a Punty Rod with iron oxide.
