For those who can't make it out:

Historical Bottle Diggers of VA...Est 1969...

This is the Harrisonburg, VA. Club bottle....
Can't say it's a repo...but an "adaptation" or, perhaps a 20th Century Commemmorative?

Thank you for all your replies to my question. You have been a great help. I am not upset that the bottle is a reproduction, in fact I have posted it on ebay, but I am upset that someone would tamper with the bottom to make it look older than it is. Hopefully I can sell it still. Basically I have been items at yardsales and estate sales to resell in hopes of making some money. Like I already said, the guy was an antique dealer having an estate sale and people should be honest. I am and that is why I get pulled in by those who aren't. Again, thank you everyone. I would have sold something under false pretenses and then I would have looked like a liar. Mango

Just found this Eagle Cornucopia listed...It has the same "faked looking" pontil mark I was talking about earlier- where someone scuffed & chipped around the circular depression....

Hi Mango,
Just curious - how much did the dealer charge you for this bottle?
Thanks,
Rich
