What is this bottle I found ? SELTERS - HERZOGTHUM NASS... - 6/3/2005 7:36:12 PM    symon42   Posts: 1 Joined: 6/3/2005 Status: offline I found a cool bottle buried in the ground. it says SELTERS and under that HERZOGTHUM NASSAU. on the back it has a W and Num 124 I went online and did a search and I found this page http://www.cosbert.com/view_stoneware_cpc142_p1.html The bottle exactly the same as the one on the webpage. except unfortunately the handle is missing. I believe it had been in the ground for 195 years or so until I found it. I was wondering if I could find any more information on what I have here. And its value today. Thanks Post #: 1

Being imports they have but small collector value although they do look "good" sitting on the shelf. Those I have had/seen were priced under $20.00. Perhaps there are scarce variations that bring more, but I am not aware of any. Did you search Ebay for active & completed auctions? That's usually a good way to begin to determine an item's worth. Welcome to the Forums and hope you continue to be interested in bottles....Good luck collecting! _____________________________ * Member: Bristol Historical Assoc...and, Friends of Steeles Creek Nature Center & Park President: Bristol Tenn-Va Bottle Club Author of: Spirits & Medicinal Bottles of Bristol,TN-VA.
