Does the Coke bottle have the D-105529 embossed after the US Patent? Also look at the narrow place just above the base. There will be two numbers there ( such as 53-56 or something like that). They are very small numbers. One of these is the date of manufacture. These are collected for the town listed on the base. You seem to have progressed from the 70's stuff to possibly the 50's. The Old Quaker is a whiskey bottle. The pyramid shaped bottle is probably a fingernail polish bottle. Sorry about the headless figurine. What were the towns on the bases of the cokes? Hope this helps. Buster

Yeah, The D Patents is what I was trying to explain before to him. The Headless one must be Marie Antonnette, did I spell that right? LEON.

most of the bottles don't look that old but still looks like an interesting site to explore . as you have been finding a lot of bottles in that location

I think the last date for a D-patent Coke was 1952. Just going by memory it was something like 1938-1952 roughly. After 52 they just put the ounces on it. LEON.

I was just happy that I solved one of these bottle puzzles.. You must have done this a while.. Now the water is rising so it will slow down to digging... Thanks for all the help I'm sure I'll need more in the future..
