Rum Bottle

[rurich]

I found this bottle in the Keys, close to some wreckage sticking out of the sand

. Was told it was not old and was Dutch. Watching a show on TV that was looking for wreck of Santa Maria. They brought out a bottle of rum from a 15th century Spanish ship wreck that is thought to be the Santa Maria. The bottle they had was identical to mine. I am certain my bottle came from the wreck about 100 yards from where I found the bottle. Not much of the wreck was above the sand but definitely and old wreck and this wreck might be one of the ships lost with the Atocha. I know where it is, as I know, no one else knows the location. I would like to hear from anyone that might know if this bottle is 15 century Spanish. My email is rurich@yahoo.com

So we have to email you with an opinion regarding this bottle.
Seems like there's other reasons, as your post eludes to much towards knowing where this ship lays.

High tea being serves out in the field during the afternoon break-no crusts on the those little wedge shaped sandwiches either.

To get this one back on track;
I agree, any complete old bottle is a keeper.

Allergy to the pollen is acting up again?
Gesundheit Bart.
Nice bottle though-seems really well preserved, from being a beach find.
I would of thought it would have scale/marine life encrusted on the sides.
