And   totally  coincidentally  ( and I do mean   TOTALLY  because  I  number  my bottles    strictly  sequentially  in the  order  in which I  buy  them )    this  bottle  is   number   "040" 

In Chinese  "0"  means  CERTAIN  and  "4"  means  DEATH   (so   4  is  THE  unluckiest number  in China. like  "13" cubed  in  the  west )



Too funny !

Looking forward to the pics..

Posted this question to yet another photography forum.. Still no replies from any of the forums I have inquired on.

It is really interesting about the two layers of film coating your seeing .. That is a good clue !
