Circa 1855 Pontiled Slug Plate Squat - Jno. Gaffney, Philadelphia

This is a pretty uncommon Philly squat that I had but dug a second one in March, 2021. Thinning my collection of doubles. It has an applied double taper top, and a very light iron pontil mark.

Embossed in slug plate:  JNO. GAFFNEY / PHIL.A.

Height:  7 3/8" 
Color:
deep teal green

Condition: perfect structurally with no chips, dings, cracks or bruises. A dug bottle however, and this one really could use a tumble polish as it has overall stain and swirl etch. The pontil is also very light.

Reference Number:  SM12

Price: $95
