is it pontiled, or hinged mold?

hinged mold...

 

[tigue710]

hinge mold will run ya 20 - 50 bucks. The prices really jump around those because they are common. Yours looks like a good clean example, if there is any character to the glass it could go for the higher end of that price. Really depends on the day...

Fairly common here in the Northeast US.
I've dug them in both the pontiled and smooth base.
Still a nice bottle, though.

looks like you could spend a $20. on worse things. looks pretty crude from the pics. indented bottom w/ hinge mold marks on her base? what kind of lip, if u don't mind me asking>? Thanks

They are great bottles... I would be very happy to dig or find one.
