Amber Tinct Iodine - 7/25/2004 3:57:07 PM    BRichardson5   Posts: 434 Joined: 8/29/2003 From: Pacific Northwest Status: offline 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? Attachment (1) Post #: 1

Let us know when you dig that cobalt skull ! Sounds like youve got some older pockets in there. _____________________________ J.D (in reply to BRichardson5) Post #: 2

RE: Amber Tinct Iodine - 11/27/2005 2:54:49 PM    Jim Posts: 3626 Joined: 7/5/2005 From: Lewistown, PA Status: offline 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 (in reply to BRichardson5) Post #: 13

RE: Amber Tinct Iodine - 1/17/2006 6:22:01 PM    mburress   Posts: 1 Joined: 1/17/2006 Status: offline 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!

RE: Amber Tinct Iodine - 1/22/2006 11:40:54 PM    Jim Posts: 3626 Joined: 7/5/2005 From: Lewistown, PA Status: offline 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 (in reply to BRichardson5) Post #: 17

RE: Amber Tinct Iodine - 1/22/2006 11:43:37 PM    Jim Posts: 3626 Joined: 7/5/2005 From: Lewistown, PA Status: offline Sorry Michelle, I forgot to address the question of the year. They were made for quite a while, approximately early 1900s to 1940s. Jim (in reply to BRichardson5) Post #: 18

Status: offline KB i dug bottles very frequently back in the early 90's and it took me about 2 years to find my first embossed poison bottle.Seems after that one they came along more often....to me any poison bottle common or not is a great find. _____________________________ CENTRAL VIRGINIA DIGGER EDDIE ROCKBRIDGE - ALLEGHENY ANTIQUE BOTTLE CLUB (in reply to KBbottles) Post #: 20
