Is this the "holy grail" of poisons?

I've seen this one before - a real beaut, you can't help but admire it. Is this the rarest size? I seem to remember the smaller ones were more scarce.

I always thought the skulls were distributed out of Boston. Then I've heard other people say it's an English bottle, which I doubt. Whats the true origin of the skull bottles?

I've heard Boston too - that's where it was patented at least

Hi all: I have the Norwich Coffin bottle complete with approx 1/3 full of intact pills ( readable too) The only damage that my bottle has is that the label is a bit faded, but readable. I have been trying to research it's value. Can anyone help me?

I think I can help you with that. What size and color is it?

 

[susanralph]

It's 71/2" for the bottle approx 8" with stopper in. It' cobalt blue and looks exactly like the one in the picture that Lobeycay posted above.
It has 16A on the bottom.

thanks
