I ran across an aqua quart size Mason jar at a flea market that was the older style jar with the Cross on the side and the patent date Nov 1858 on the bottom. The number on the bottom appeared to be a 13, but the 3 was embossed so faintly that it could have been a 5. It looked more like a 3. I sometimes sell jars on eBay, and myth or not, #13 is popular. I haven't seen this number before on the old style jar, let alone one with the Masonic Cross. The dealer came down to $20 from $25, but I didn't buy it. Considering that the number was difficult to make out, does anyone have any advice as to the value? Thank you.
