Who is this old dude on this screw cap?!

[oddcoins]

Hello!

I dug this screw cap in Eugene Oregon today. I assume it's kinda old because of the depth that I dug it at. Anyone know who this guy is on this cap? How old it is? What did this cap come off of?

THANKS!
Neil

My first thought was wine bottle cap. The guy could be the vintner. Pick some popular brands and start searching...

Start with Ernest Gallo.

screw caps by their nature are not that old as a general rule and being found at depth is not a 100% way to know its old -- remember being found deep is not "proof" its old

I'm thinking gallo bros. wine bottle screw top -- both earnest and julio wore glasse's

Yeah, I know you're right. Heck, I've found 1970's Memorial cents 8 inches deep before! HOW DO THEY GET THAT DEEP?!
