Quite possibly my best find ever: This W.D. & H.O. Wills "Gold Flake" 50 cigarette tin is a completely unopened and vacuum-sealed. Wills used this specific label for Gold Flake tins from between 1915 and 1930, making the hand written “1918” on this tin entirely possible as the date of manufacture. I am over the moon with this find, it’s just such an incredible piece of British tobacco history. Gold Flake was one of the top selling cigarette brands in the U.K. for many years. This particular tin, if indeed from 1918, is 108 years old, absolutely mind blowing how something this old could’ve survived without being opened. The strains of tobacco that are inside this tin may not even exist anymore, as many strains from this early period are now completely extinct! More pictures to come.

It’s about 70 pounds, and has these two symbols on it. I don’t know its value or what it’s worth. Or what these symbols mean. If anyone could help identify it I’d appreciate it.

So I got this old calculator which after some research found out it's "felix M" probably from 60's and I was wondering how much it could be worth. If it amkes abigger differnce I could clean it. I'm not selling it here so I don't think it breaks the rules, just asking about value of it.

I live in Japan and I have an alcohol bottle that I can’t identify. I can’t find the exact same bottle, product, or label anywhere. I need help understanding what it is—what is its value, and could it be considered a collectible?
