I'll betcha it was one of those NJ glass blowers from the 50s-60s, made a mold of a modern Coke bottle, and here's the result. It's an odd ball for sure.

Total fantasy I think. Clear with a red coating casted by a glass artisan starter. Could be a one off.Still, it must have cost a bit to make so $120 is pretty cheap, if your into that kind of thing.

I saw that too but the base shot where the mold came together (loosely and pinched) looked like clear glass. Maybe it's just my monitor.

I think it's proof of time travel, and aliens!Time travel because someone went back to the 1850s with a Coke bottle, and had a glass house make him a copy that he then buried, and later dug back up when he returned to our time, there by securing profits from ebay.and, Aliens because, why not.

It's a good thing a another digger didn't find it first. That would mess with the whole time continuum... I think?I'm never sure and that's why I stopped time traveling.

120 $$$ worth of fake-ness yes!!! feel proud to stick it on your shelf. [8|]

If you zoom in on the shot of the bottom, you can see the light green rim around it and the pinched seam like cowseatmaize said.
