Hexagonal Admiralty Poison with wax seal: Medical Depot / (Anchor) / Deptford. Poison Cobalt Applied top, tooled finish. Hexagonal. Cobalt. 4 oz. 144 mm. 1900s
Excellent. These admiralty poisons are highly collectable, but to have a link to a Navy Depot such as that at Deptford is even better. Tiny flake to outer lip, the upper inner lip has a couple of miniscule nibbles as well. Small flake to one of the corners in the lower half. Not sure why the wax seal is located on the side of the bottle, but it has parts of the left missing and has cracks across the remaining majority. An extremely interesting piece. Grade: 8.6 Estimate: $100 - 150
