Hi,

I found this small bottle yesterday while I was metal detecting at a old homesite, it came out of a hole when I was digging a signal, I don't know anything about bottles so if anyone knows how old this is I would love to know! It has a 10 on the bottom and lines on the side, it also has what looks like a Bakelite lid.

Thanks!

I find these little medicine bottles in trash pits from the 1930s to the 50s. Sometimes they have droppers attached to the bottom side of the metal lid.
