Default Pls help on the age and value of my dad's old bottle

Hi,

We don't know anything about this whiskey bottle, just that's it's pretty old. The name is "White Horse Fine Old Scotch Whiskey" and the number is 7877599. Can it be dated? And how much is it valued at?

Thanks in advance!

Default Dad's White Horse Whisky

Deadharbor,

Looks like you have a bottle from the mid-late 1970's.

Unfortunatly this brand doesn't acquire any significant value untill it is
about 50 years old. Right now it would sell for maybe a bit more than
curent shelf prices.

Cheers,
Walter C Hurst

Thanks Walter! My dad insisted the bottle has been around since the sixties though. So hopefully I'll hear from Jojo too with a more definite date. Hate to disappoint my dad.

Unless someone really wants your bottle you'll find that the value in auction is even less than current bottled prices

I totally agree!
It is not that old and it is a mass produced item, unfortunately.

Thanks guys. We don't mind that it's not really very valuable. Just keeping it for fun. I noticed that the images aren't working for non-registered users of imageshack, so hope these work.
