In dating skirted coke bottles, what would the date be on this 6oz size? I have read several articles concerning Coke bottle dating and am a little confused as to year versus cavity number and mold number. Thanks.

Coke changed the numbering system about 1951, by fliping the date and manufacturer , it's confusing until you check a few other things as the 6 oz. vs he 61/2 oz. size. If you can find a Porters book he explains it better. Yours is a 52 the 6 os confirms it.
