CD 162 - Type III, Mold G1.2

Color: Green Aqua
Base Type: RDP:r

 

Features: This is a retooling of a CD 162 III, Mold G1.1 to strengthen the base of the skirt (see also CD 162 I, Mold G1 and CD 162 II, Mold G1). Skirt has been machined beginning about 15mm from the base and increasing toward the base. This makes the skirt thicker at the base and slightly flared outward. On some pieces there are small ridges of glass around the edge of the base. On front, the L logo is intact, but only the very tops of the letters LYNCHBURG (2-5mm) are visible. On reverse, MADE IN is intact. The upper one third to one half of NO. 36 is visible but only the tip of A in U.S.A. remains

Mold Number Location: no mold number visible
