I've dug unembossed jars from the 1880s and 1890s, but this is my first embossed one. Thoughts on age or manufacturer?

Take a good look at the lip (could give us a lookie at it too) is it ground? is it nice and crisp (machine Finished) The bottom looks like a transitional Machine made -

Some of these can be found with -Atlas- at the top above Mason. I'd say around the turn of the century 1900 to 1909. Around 1910 the bead seal jars started replacing shoulder seal jars.
