I. J. K. Cohn / Southern Cross / & / Coolgardie // Acme Patent / 4 / Sole Makers / Dan Rylands Ld / Barnsley. No base mark. Aerated Water Codd Applied top. Acme Patent. Cobalt. 13 oz. 236 mm. 1880s
Very Good. Polished. Some minor inner neck haze. The words Trade Mark around the neck lugs is hard to see on both sides, but more difficult on the right side. Some scuffs and scratches remain. Scattered small fisheyes, these are relatively few. Some minor scuffing around the base edge. A great polish job, the embossing is still quite good, even the rear ACME PATENT embossing which is usually barely legible is quite clear and distinct on this one. An all time classic, this is a rare chance to purchase a great example with a minimal $1,000 start price and no reserve! Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $5000 - 7500
