Blue Bottle in the shape of a fish

Britt21

My mom was watching a show where they dug up old bottles and some bottles were worth quiet a bit of money. well in one episode they found a blue bottle in the shape of a fish and i dont remember exactly what it was worth but i know it was a good amount. Anyways my mom has a bottle exactly like it.. i dont have a pic at the moment but i can get one. im just wondering if you have any clue what im talking about. thanks.

If you had one of the two original Dr. Fisch's Bitters in cobalt blue, then you would be looking at a bottle worth over $100,000. There are many thousands of reproduction figural fish bottles made by Wheaton glassworks which are quite common.

See this discussion: Dr. Fisch bottles and this auction report on a clear Dr. Fisch bitters bottle

See this discussion: Dr. Fisch bottles

For the reproductions, the value is the same regardless of color.

So you're saying that the pictures that you're showing of the colbolt blue fish are a replication? Am I correct on that because the bottle that I have does not have the same bottom as the one in the picture shown.
