Hello all,
I recently found a small metal vial with cork still inside. When I popped the cork out, the vial was empty but the cork had a purplish residue on it. I found the vial at an old mining community, within a house or hotel foundation (I’m thinking hotel or house because of the many broken dishes, glasses, and beef bones). The small community dates back to the late 1800’s. I think the metal is copper that might be oxidizing, there doesn’t appear to be any markings. Any suggestion what it might be or held?
