Does anyone know when this old bottle was made?

I was on a hike and I found this old soda bottle that was called "Golden". Not sure if its an antique or not. It has a picture of a cornucopia on it and it says it was bottled in Florence Colorado by Duraglas. Its a clear bottle and says it contains 9 1/2 fl ozs. The back says:

Our Golden Fine Flavors

Contains: Carbonated water, sugar, citric acid or tartaric acid, essential oils or artificial flavor and color

contents 9 1/2 fl ozs

Property of Golden bottling CO Florence CO

Then the bottom says:

7 (some weird symbol) 56

Duraglas

2

G711

If anyone can give me anymore details that would be great! Thanks in advance...

Update:

Here's a picture.. Hope it comes up okay.

    Your bottle was made during July of 1956.

    I would suggest you contact the company, there is a "contact us link here, http://www.macraesbluebook.com/Search/company.cfm?... and request an ID of the bottle, and possible value, but I think you will need to look at e-bay or similar to get an idea.

    A good antiques dealer in your area may be able to assist with both aspects.

    Gut instinct tells me that 7 56 mean July of that year, whch would make it 54 years old.
