To me the two on the left looked nuked, I don't think they are those colors naturally. The nuked ones always seem to be the newer ABM widemouths, the natural off colors seem to be from older styles.

Two on the left are definately nuked. do not understand why people collect these bottles anyways! there so common we used to use them for target practice and throw them back inna holes when they were dug, the only ones that would be good for anything are the huge size, and then only inna window for color..........

Here it is next to the usual cobalt blue. I actually dug another (broken) teal one the previous year, so I was real happy to find this one whole.

I'm not sure about that olive green one he has listed........but the teal is real.

I collect these because they are Baltimore history. I like common bottles in uncommon colors and I dug an Aqua 2 1/2 inch one when I was a kid. I have an aqua four inch one that I got from Staunton Dan that's the only one I've seen. I have a teal blue, a teal geen, etc. but the teal one he's selling is one of the newer wide mouth bottles so I'm not sure it hasn't been nuked like the olive green one beside it.
