Hi. I found this bottle right under my dock in Bocas del Toro, Panama. It cleaned up pretty nicely, but I have no idea what it is. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Looks like a crown top soda bottle from the 1920’s. Does it say anything on the base?

[font="sans-serif, arial, helvetica, geneva"]O in a square..........Owens Bottle Company, Toledo OH (1903-1929), also Fairmont, WV; Clarksburg, WV, and other plant locations. Owens Bottle Co. merged with the Illinois Glass Company of Alton, IL in 1929 to form the Owens-Illinois Glass Company. (Julian Toulouse stated this mark was first used in 1911, but according to U.S. Patent & Trademark Office data, Owens claimed first use was not until 1919)
