I posted this a few days ago, but I'm not sure what it is. I live outside Saratoga Springs, NY and I found this bottom piece on the surface around some other mineral shards. I thought it might be another Saratoga bottle, but I can't find anything on google and I don't have my own research books yet. Any ideas?

I've a dug a bunch of those down here, they were quart size blob top beers, applied blob on them, no other embossing except for the S on the bottom. I also dug a few with X's and debossed squares in the base. Never made the Saratoga connection but it would make sense, A few of the Saratoga company's did use quart amber blobs, I have one that says Lincoln springs on it, Saratoga...
