Green bottle with Maryland state seal on bottom??

Hey Guys! Haven't been on here in a while... Diggin the new set up... My dad found this broken bottom of a bottle today that is really cool. It appears to have the seal of Maryland on the bottom and (elixir?) "No. 9" on the side. It appears to be BIM and probably about turn of the century based on what else he found there... I have searched the internet to no avail lol. Anyway, I am tired and will let the pictures do the rest of the talking! Thanks so much for the help! -JP

It's a Gilka Kummel bottle like this one... http://www.ebay.com/itm/J-A-GILKA-Schutzen-Brandy-Bottle-Str-No-9-Berlin-Bright-Amber-ca-1885-1890s-/331102736694?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4d1742d136
