While browsing some of the sellers items for sale I found this. This does not look like a dive find to me. Reproduction.

Hey Cracked. As a diver I can say this, at times I find modern stuff as well as old items. In theory, someone could have thrown in a commemorative bottle. However, they make assurances that all of their items are authentic original artifacts. If this is a repro, and it doesn't look old to me, I think I would be very cautious about the veracity of what they say.

That settles it, I'm throwing all my Lestoil and other fakes in the lake.... then I'm going swimming.
I think I'll wait a few more months though.
