So from what I understand This bottle is from Rhode Island. Picked this up in a box of random sodas I bought from the show recently.

Nice soda. They come in smooth base and iron pontil versions. They are the most common pontiled RI colored soda, but are probably worth a minimum of $50. The smooth based ones vary a lot depending on condition.

Thanks for the info. Here is a pic of the bottom. I think its for sure pontiled, but it is hard to tell too.

Hmm, they are hard to tell when there is no iron left. Plus I've seen a few of these with crude bottoms. I'd tentatively say smooth base since the crudeness goes right to the edge of the base from what I can see.
