I found this a couple of days ago. It was totally covered in coral and sponge. It has cleaned up enough to find the lettering. Can anyone age it. Most J T bottles I see on line have Schiedam written in the same font not smaller like this. Also the J really looks like an I on this bottle.

Can't help with your age question, but curious what you used to clean it? (it actually looked pretty cool with all that coral on there as well)

Cool bottle! I've had pretty good luck cleaning marine growth off bottles by soaking them in CLR. I agree that it looked really cool as found though too, but I would have had to clean it because it would have driven me nuts to see what it was!
