My First Dug Embossed Pontil!

[RIBottleguy]

I got pretty excited when I dug this one bottom-first. No damage, just a lot of saltwater etching. I cleaned it off right in the water, hence the traces of dirt.

Dyer's Healing Embrocation Providence, RI

Congrats! That's awesome. My first was a C.W. Atwell Portland, Me. bottle.

Still no embossed pontils for me... Nice find! Is it a rare one?

 

[RIBottleguy]

I'd say it's scarce, sells for around $100 on a good day. There is a 12-sided version that I would consider rare.

Very nice pontil bottle you dug there.

PD

Congratulations, always good to find the pontils. Good luck on future digs.

Nice find!!

I'm still hoping for one myself. Not too much stuff that old in California and Hawaii where I've done most of my digging - although I have managed to pull a few blank punty boys and one heavily damaged Dr. D. Jaynes.

I'd be super stoked to find a Dyer's like the one you got there - and I wouldn't part with it for no measely $100 either []
