Rare Colorado Hutch Found

[seychik]

Digging a small dump in Denver produced this aqua beauty, a Del Norte Bottling Works, Colorado Hutch. The stopper looks new and the bottle is clean and has no wear. I was super stoked when I read Del Norte! It's from Colorado City Glass Company, marked C. C. G. Co. on bottom.

Seychick is being very modest in this posting. Plus, the photo doesn't do the bottle justice at all.
There are maybe 5 or 6 of these bottles in existence, and I believe most, if not all have some form of lip damage.
She was up at the Annual Leadville Bottle Show, and it was the center of attention.
Most gold coins dug aren't worth the value or are as rare as this find.
Banner worthy.

Thanks guys. I am really enjoying the rarity of the bottle and was out again tonight checking if something else good would pop up, but nothing did. Still on Cloud Nine...
