I have quite a few small bottles. As I'm researching these little ones, some seem to medicine, and some seem to be ink. Any input would be appreciated!! The ones with the rough bottoms are how old? It makes them worth more? Amethyst is more desirable? Thanks in advance!! :welcome:

The Amethyst sun colored one is the result of magnesium in the glass (once a clear glass) to become purple over time from sun exposure.
Ink? Not really sure. Possibly.
Fairly common looking bottle. Maybe $5-10

The open pontil other two are approx. 1850-1860 era.
One appears to be a medicine the taller one I'm thinking a sauce.
If I had to guess..$20-25 each?
