Very Good. Polished. Very nice polish job on this one with plenty of details and full seam lines. Remains of some minor pitting, fisheyes, scuffs and scratches to be seen. Some cooling type crazing and annealing marks below the blobby lip. Rare bottle, one of several variations, this one with Codd's Patent on the base (of course anything with a marble in it and a groove in the lip is a variation on Codd's Patent). These are even rarer with Rowland's Patent on the shoulder like this one. Grade: 7.7 Estimate: $500 - 600
