I was metal detecting an early 1900's home today and found this. I was shocked it was complete. This place is littered with glass fragments all over. Does anyone know what it is purpose wise? Or even a value. There are no markings and its purple.
I kinda like those even with no embossing. I keep em when I find em. I've seen a guy on YouTube smash all the slick medicines he finds. I think that's disrespect to the hobby and I keep every half decent whole or slightly beat up bottle I find.
MrSchulz said:I do see your point there. I rebury them, because if you think of it this way, pontiled bottles most of us want even if they aren't embossed, 30 years down the road, someone may think the same of the blank medicines that were blown.
