Dug this little corker the other day- it is ABM, amber, has skull and crossbones, and reads "Tinct- Iodine." Only a couple inches tall. Any value?

BR - I think around 15 to 20 range - I dug one the other day myself. Let us know when you dig that cobalt skull ! Sounds like youve got some older pockets in there.

Hello;
Regarding your amber iodine bottle I found the same one while scuba diving near my home in Nova Scotia Canada. I guess they got around!!

East Central Ohio, mine has 6 M on the bottom and was found with the glass 'dropper' in it. Must have been a big seller.

These are KS-12 iodine bottles. Very cool, but one of the most common poisons around. The American ones read POISON TINCT IODINE, and there is also a Canadian variety with POISON LIQ IODINE. Both have the skull and bones. They come in at least three sizes that I know of. One that I have has a keystone on the bottom, most have K and a number. There is also one with BH Co.

Watch out for oval-shaped bottles of the same design. These are KO-3s, and worth $50+. The square KS-12s sell for $10-$20. Jim

Hi all - Jim mentioned above:

The American ones read POISON TINCT IODINE, and there is also a Canadian variety with POISON LIQ IODINE.

I have a Canadian one - that is actually in great shape with the label intact, but what I'm interested in is the year these were made - can any one help me with this? Thank you!

Michelle

Probably about $20-30 with the full label, stopper and glass rod. I've seen them bring a little more or a little less, but that's about the average. They're a lot harder to find that way. Jim

Sorry Michelle, I forgot to address the question of the year. They were made for quite a while, approximately early 1900s to 1940s. Jim
