Swayne's Panacea Full Medicine Bottle Value??

Hey everybody! I typically collect vintage sports memorabilia, but I picked up a big lot of old medicine bottles at the last auction I went to and found this in there. Couldn't find any that sold on eBay and it seems like from what I read online that it is pretty rare. Of course I know rarity doesn't always translate to value, so I'm asking here what you guys think it might be worth. It's 100% full!

Thanks!

    Hi Derek

    This is a later clear example of the Swains medicine which is a different animal than the earlier Swain bottles found in olive green and other colors.

    The bottle also appears to not have embossing, correct?

    The label is definitely a plus and to some extent, the contents. Some collectors would like to see the contents.

    Hey Chris thanks for the reply! And you are correct, no embossing. do you think 1910's-1920's? I know the rest of the bottles I found were right around then and I read Swayne's went out of business in the 1920's. Any idea on a good selling price?
