    Black Glass

    Found this bottle in mangrove roots at lo tide. It appears to be a 3-part mold. Can anyone date it or tell me any more about it?

    I live in a state of rules where I am not permitted to live on my own country land because my home is not 130 MPH rated! I can only visit it from time to time and pay the fines.  I feel so safe with Big Government protecting me. In some states its illegal to collect rainwater.

    How crude is that top...I can't see it. I've been told, the cruder, the older. Also, if the mold mark doesn't go all the way to the top it's a good sign.
    Never underestimate the stupidity of people.

    Its too dark outside to take another pic. It appears to have been put on later... applied?

    Ah. I see it. It's still a cool bottle, even if it's common.
