Agreed, and I was just in the process of composing a reply.

I don’t know what it held, but the Owens-Illinois Glass Company mark as an ‘I’ within an ‘O’ but without a surrounding diamond lozenge was first used in 1954, with a gradual transition such that almost all moulds had it by 1959.

The number to the left will be the plant code, and it appears to be a ‘3’, which is for the Fairmont, West Virginia plant (in operation from 1930-1980). The number to the right will be the date code. By 1954 Owens-Illinois were using double-digit date codes (sometimes using a distinguishing mark with single digits to prevent confusion between, say 1955 and 1965), so the single ‘5’ on yours without any distinction will likely be for 1955 manufacture.
