Similar to the GI-40 except that Washington's bust is slightly raised ( More Three dimensional) This flask has the same inscription as the GI-40 except in a narrower arch with the letter "T" in the word THE is opposite of Washington's Throat and the letter Y of the word COUNTRY located near the ribbon of queue.On the Taylor side of the flask the bust of Taylor is in slightly higher relief and his hair has pebbling in it which differs from the other flasks in this series of pint flasks.There are 5 buttons on Taylor's Coat. It has the same inscription as the GI-38 Except the letter G in GEN is opposite of the second button from the bottom and the letters ERS of the word SURRENDER below the epaulets. There are also 28 small beads or dots at the bottom which forms the bottom of the raised panel in an arc from the letter G to the letter S. This flask has only been found in Green and brilliant Aquamarine. Mckearin lists it as rare, and I believe this flask is a South Jersey Product based on the metal in the glass. I am fortunate enough to have two in my personal collection and one from the Gerard ( Jerry ) Dauphinias collection for this page.
The first flask in my collection is quite heavy and is a nice shade of blue /aqua.
The next flask is from the Gerard ( Jerry ) Dauphinias Collection.This flask differs from both of my examples in that the lip is tooled at the very top where on mine they both have the sheared type of mouth.

The next flask is from my own collection and is very thin walled and weighs substantially less then my other one.
