If anyone could help me put a date (range) on this I would appreciate it. I am only a few years into the hobby and am still learning. I have had this bottle sitting around for a couple years and can't quite figure it out. Obviously olive green, no seems, slightly irregular in shape. There is also a slight ridge at the bottle edge where the sides turn under to the bottom. If anyone with greater knowledge than myself can help out me solve this mystery, you'd be my hero.

Looks like an 1890's or thereabouts spun mold mineral water bottle.

I believe these mostly come from Europe, so sometimes they can be a bit newer than we'd expect blob tops to be. In Canada they're found in dumps dating up to the 1920s or so.

I've got two with labels for Vermont mineral water companies, so they are definitely American as well. Used to be a fairly common find in VT dumps back in the 70s. Anywhere from 1880 to turn of century and definitely mineral water.
