    Millenbach beer bottle?

    My coworker tore down his porch yesterday and found a 13oz Millenbach beer bottle under it. Google says they were in business 1888-1890. He is going to send me pics but said it’s in good shape. Does anyone know the value of it?

    Went through junk bucket, found gold!

    Was going through my junk metal bucket last night to get rid of and found a ring that i thought was a junk ring. I realized that it was still shiny. It had no markings but i had it acid tested any way. Turns out it is solid 14k! It pays to double check your junk.

    Medal or watch fob

    Found this neat medal or watch fob in my yard here in central ks. I have been trying to find anything about it but all i have found is it could be something to do with hotel greeters. We used to have a big railroad hotel in our town in the early 1900's.
