I only own 1 American Codd & this is it. Looks a lot like yours. View attachment 206421

What variation is yours? Mine is number 02036AB. It has 3 lines above and below BB on the bottom with 2 dots. I see there are 4 variations of this bottle plus one variation when the company incorporated.

Hi I found these two Cod Stoppers diving in Halifax Harbour not the cleanest place in the world. while poking around looking for bottles I came by an old rusty cable in a tangle on the bottom thinking anything under the cable if it didn't break should be untouched I moved around some of the pieces and came by these two codd stoppers

Were your Codds embossed? I'd like to get my hands on a Canadian Codd one of these days, not sure how much the Eastern ones tend to go for. I know the BC Codds are way beyond my price range but I think the ones from Montreal might be more common.

Not sure what variation I have. That pic I had saved on my computer from when I first got that like 5+ years ago. I still have the Bottle, Just don't know where it is. It's boxed up somewhere, with 1,000+ bottles & 3,000 beer cans I don't have enough room to display it all so many cans & bottles boxed up. LEON.

I recently aquired my first American codd bottle circa 1885-1915. Standard Mineral Water Brinton & Brosius Philadelphia. It is in good shape, and has the marble and rubber gasket also.View attachment 206062View attachment 206063

What a great find. I was on a cruise last fall and went in a shop and saw 2 antique bottles shaped like this. I wanted to go back and buy them both but didn't have the time. Dang it!

May I ask (as a total greenhorn to collecting), what is a Codd?

Strike while the irons hot. When i was a little kid i went in a store with my brother and saw a conetop beercan i dont remember which one. We asked how much? He said give me 5 bucks. We freaked out ran home got the money ran back and the guy said sorry i just sold it. What a skunk. Don't ever act like we did. Put on your best poker face and don't show your hand early.
