Found a tin in a remote piece of land on the canadian/US border, guessing less than a handful of people have ever set foot on this location. Anyways, the tin is rusted and made of a solid metal, the only markings I can read on it are the top of canister has a circle ring with the letters M T K or M K T along the bottom of circle and V on the top of the circle, there is a small raised dot circle in the center of this circle.
The bottom of the canister says BRASIL with the letters [illegible], I, P above BRASIL.
The shape of the canister is approximately 12 inches tall, 5 inches wide and about 3 inches deep. Tall rectangular box.
It looks like the canister had some slits punched in the bottom, my guess on the slits cut in the bottom is that the canister was used as a heat source for a hunter.
Sorry I don't have a picture, I choose to leave the canister in the location until I could identify it.
Curious as to how this canister arrived here and from what era.
Thanks for your help.
