Reproduction Coke bottle?

[LazyGecko10]

Its a 1915 but has an R... It WAS dug up next to another bottle from 1900-1908 era sooo? Usually there is a bottling location on the bottom... Thoughts?
FYI, dug from under the addition of my house (build time unknown).

It's an original from Reed Glass Company. Lots of companies made Coke bottles and not every bottle had a city on the bottom. I have a few that don't. 1915 is simply the patent date but not the date the bottle was made. It's a cool bottle regardless.

It would be highly unlikely to dig up a reproduction Coke with other older 1900+ bottles. With out a city & or State listed on bottom would have limited desireability in my opinion. Still a nice find though. Congrats. LEON.

That is what I figured. Thank you.

Most Cokes are dated, all are after about 1920 or 21. Reed Cokes are dated on the heel (Use a 4x glass!) The earliest Reed Cokes I've seen are dated 21. The R in ∆ mark dates from 1923. Those without a city name are interesting but not worth a lot. But they are almost all a very attractive blue/aqua color. I collect them!
BTW, I've never seen a repro. 1915, or a fake, except for sawed off base plates glued on to other bottles.
