Sold for A$45
S. A. Brewing / Coy Ltd / Port Augusta. Base: A. (South Australia). Aerated Water. Lamont. Applied top, spun finish. Aqua. 6 oz. 170 mm. 1910s
Very Good. (7.1). 2 x 4 mm nibbled surface flake to rear lip, there is an even smaller fine bruise beside this. Little nibbled impact to lower left rear. Hazy throughout. Oiled internally with some associated grime. This has had a polish!! The only way I can tell is three evenly spaced dark green marks around the base from the stopple and oxides used. Obviously, a very light polish with no cutting involved! Fisheyes and impact marks scattered around. Some heavy wear to front shoulder and again at front base edge. Nibbled impact flake to seam at lower left. Scuffs and scratches scattered around. Nibbled wear to the embossing in places. Remains a decent example of a hard to get bottle, this is the first small example we have sold. Estimate: $40-60
