I didn't know that they had born on dates on old Coke bottles! Was the date shown as a bottom scar? Send a close up photo.

I didn’t either to be honest with you. I will try to send a pic of it but it will be hard to see until I have time to clean it up.

Yes you’re right, it is a 1921. At the bottom heel it reads Chatt 21

The scar on the bottom may not make it a year 1921 either.

I'll bet that quenched someone's thirst a century ago.

That’s how I was told to date them. How else could you find the date on them?
