    Canadian Crown jars

    crowns are tough to determine without really good pics but your last one looks like a #695-5 or a 696-2 in the red book (depends on if the lip is ground or smooth. either way its listed as 2-4 bucks. pictures on a neutral background would help as on some of them its the number of dots around the...

    Ground vs Factory Sealing Surfaces

    the first appears to be #1989 in the red book, the second looks like a # 1920 according to " the fruit jar works" most ground lip jars are pre 1900 and made by various makers.

    Ground vs Factory Sealing Surfaces

    Post some pictures and someone will be glad to ID them, BTW I only use red book 12 and lower as well as " the fruit jar works 1 & 2" as in 13 there have been from my understanding a bunch of jars removed.

    Michigan Mason fruit jar

    I would stick with red book 12 as the later additions have eliminated some of the more common jars or so I've been told. One caveat is that jar collecting is addictive and you may end up like some of us with rooms full of jars. :rolleyes:

    Michigan Mason fruit jar

    Nice jar, there are several variations of the jar with different monograms on the base or unmarked. The color in the picture would be considered clear. Values range from 20 to 150 depending on size, color, embossing etc. This is according to red book 12. the listings are 2172 to 2173-2 in the...

    Help with value, age canning jars

    You dont mention the size but it could be in the #1972 range of the red book listings, looks like a ghosted "trademark reg patented " but hard to see from your pics. made from the 1915's when the patent was issued into the 30's or 40's. A fairly common jar

    Ball wire close jar error identification

    If it is a pint could be a # 213-2 the description reads "wire upside down" or it could be a "monday jar" (mold engraver still hung over) will have to check some of mine as I think I have a couple somewhere. better pic of whole jar along with size would help.

    Does anyone know why my beer bottle has a 1923 date code?
