It is uranium glass but also, by my calculations, its density is 3.4gms/cm3 which puts it in the lead glass range, it also rings. The "pontil mark" is indeed just an indentation left behind after the base was smoothed. The wear on the base looks genuine and overall it looks to me to be from the 1920's/30's and European. I don't think it's supposed to be a copy of anything earlier but the more modern ones are copies of it, but who knows for sure.
