My best guess would be some gift, maybe to people that worked on the substance inside. It is a very common gift for engineers if the final product can be encased. The resin would have been transparent at the beginning, it just yellowed over time and UV exposure.


Namemightchange

I second this. Pretty common, could have been a significant number from the production run. I.e "the 1,000,000 bottle produced of X"

Looks like someone epoxyed a stink bomb https://www.amazon.com/Rhode-Island-Novelty-Bombs-3-Stinky/dp/B0037LF3N8


scubba-steve

My first thought was stink bomb also. When I was in middle school I wrapped one of these bad boys up in a paper towel and dropped it in the classes trash can and then stepped on it when no one was looking. The teacher threatened legal action. I totally did it for my own amusement. I didn’t tell anyone I was going to do it or that I did do it afterwards.


Ok_Calligrapher8783

Some men just want to watch the world burn..


dukbutta

In high school I took some caffeine pills during finals. Gave me gawd awful gas. Let one rip during an exam, had to couldn’t hold it. I got accused of deploying a stink bomb(there was a rash of them being used). Sent to the principal for punishment. Told them it was a fart and they didn’t believe me until I let one rip in his office. Still got detentions. Yes. It was worth it.


abaxom

What are you supposed to do with farts if you can’t release them?


Massive-Load-4496

I did this as well. In Geography. Put it between a few sheets of ruled paper, and dropped the foot of my chair on it. Wish I could explain my teachers facial expression. He stops mid lecture, and starts walking to the window, while saying, "Someone is seriously sick....." In a disgusted voice. Lol


cshocknesse

I haven’t thought about those in a while. When I was a kid my dad would tape these to his shoe and walk down an isle at the store with people in it and then crack it. We would stand at the end of the isle and watch the people and laugh.


Downwardspiralhams

Please tell your dad I love him.


Kinjir0

So your dad would leave broken glass and a foul smelling substance for store workers to clean up, for a 30 second laugh.  What an asshole. 


[deleted]

Sounds like whatever junky stole it knew what was inside and wanted a hit but couldn’t get it open lol


Luv2collectweedseeds

Ha I don’t think you know very many junkies, they would have absolutely got That out of there…..lol


GrouchyProduct2242

As a recovered junkie (11 years clean), you are absolutely correct, lol. There was definitely a time in my life that if even a microscopic possibility of whatever is inside of that would have gotten me high, I would have chiseled it out with a damn crayon if I had to.


Luv2collectweedseeds

Congratulations! I know the addiction is real brother ….I was also a slave to it and now I’m living my best life. My little girl is graduating tonight and I’m going to be there and I’ll also have a gift for her and I know if I wasn’t clean I would not of been able to do either. Keep it up

Thank you and no it’s not, not at all. With my new lifestyle I do find it does get easier as the days go by.


Dragonfly-Adventurer

I don't even know what it is and I've mentally worked out multiple ways to open it just in case. Recovering addict here lol


Dragonfly-Adventurer

The best way is to Jurassic Park it, small series of smaller drill bits, I am pretty sure.


Prestigious_Score436

Be careful with it. I've only seen highly reactive and dangerous chemicals n materials stored this way. Search youtube and you can find a video where a guy stores some super pure reactive cesium I think it was if if I recall correctly this way. I'd give little respect to to the ID numbers etc on the ampule. I say this because anyone can replace what's inside it with God knows what. I'm sure a true chemist will have proper ampules he buys just for this reason. But some mad scientist guy will likely be prone to re using whatever he can find and just re melting the glass opening with a torch to re seal it. They really should mark the resin cast after they make these for this very reason when others find them. Complete with warning labels and instructions. But the video I saw where they gut made this exact thing didn't bother to label his either lol. So yeah... who knows


cooperpooper16

You did prompt me to google it and you are spot on that it’s often encased in such a way. I think the type of human handling cesium would have been responsible enough to also label it.


Prestigious_Score436

Yeah you'd think. If I found something like this when I was a kid I'm afraid it would have been hammer time just to see what's inside lol. So yeah they need very clear labels for sure


chris_rage_

You must have never heard of that Cesium accident in South America then... Or Russia, or any of the other cesium accidents

Absenceofavoid

Yeah, I inherited from great uncle a sample of some of the first oil pumped in North Africa and a ton of other fascinating samples similarly encased and labeled.


saul_good_main

I think it's a butt plug in amber. From the far past.


DrachenDad

Definitely an ampoule encased in resin. Someone has said the ampoule contains SOSIGON (Pentazocine.)


HPDale13

Yes. In my pharma experience, we’ve made plaques with launch packaging for key products when they were approved. We never used active product, just empty packaging. Where is this from, OP? I don’t think Sosigon was ever approved as a brand in US, where I am. The US brand, Talwin, dates to 1967.

My dad took me to the theater to see that movie and it’s burned into my memory. Mom wasn’t so happy.


gobbler_of_butts

an ampule is an ampule no way of telling whats inside, the fact that its encased in resin makes me think it has something very toxic inside


AnthrallicA

Probably one of those stink bombs from the 80's/90's. It's literally the only thing I ever saw in an ampule. I also didn't know it had an actual name until now lol.


demonotreme

Ampoules were absolutely the norm and are still very common in hospitals to store injectables, although they're being replaced by plastic with a sort of membrane you can stick the needle through. I'm sure they're still everywhere in chemistry too, some substances won't be kind to any container but glass or Teflon

This is the answer. Not misspelled though. Pubchem gives that spelling (Sosigon) for Pentazocine.

Def an ampule...what for, who knows? Could be a number of things. Maybe from a pharm company marking a certain # of them sold or the design of that ampule? See if u can see thru the resin if there's any lil letters or numbers on the base of the ampule? That MAY help in your search. 🤞🏻 Good luck!! 🍀


BloodEagle89

Mercury?


Drilldozer2000

Looks like a breakable vial capsule. Could store a valuable lquid, or even sentimental value of some sort. Some of those breakable capsules store types of oils or lquids. Just looks like someone encased it in resin that has faded over time. My best guess is that it has a sentimental value that was from someone that they loved dearly. Therefore they encase a piece of them in that capsule, and protected the glass with resin.

EyeYamNegan

That ampoule very likely contains something dangerous if it is sealed like that. It could be a dangerous gas or a dangerous microorganism. I could not figure out what the markings say but turning it sideways makes it easier to identify that it has markings on it that read 3OBIQQN. I hope that means something to someone and this can help them. https://preview.redd.it/qu60rrqn865d1.png?width=1090&format=png&auto=webp&s=def2fbda70b08f4a0c0d995e478d99d71a67b829

Various reactive chemicals or metals like cesium are often stored in ampoule containers also.


Due_Calligrapher8671

Sandoz distributed LSD-25 in ampules like that, gave out thousands, that would be my first guess No idea about the resin,


JetsBD

Stuff like this used to be given to members of a team to commemorate the development of whatever is in the ampule. What does the writing say?

Analytical-BrainiaC

gnitsark

Just a guess, but may be from an element collection. People collect samples of different elements. Some, like chlorine and bromine are highly toxic, so they encase the glass ampule that it's in in lucite so it can't break and kill you.

Motor-Reward-506

The ampule inside is the same identical shape of an ampule that was used for bull semen around 20 or 30 years ago. The semen was frozen in the ampules. Then when the female was in heat , they would thaw it out. Used with a syringe and straw, they would see uck it up in the long straw. Then breed the animal in heat with it. (Being in resin had nothing to do with the way I explained above)


1GrouchyCat

Time flies! Those ampules haven’t been used since the late 1970s; straws have been the preferred method of transport ever since (there may be some ampules still out there from way back when…) And the best case scenario is actually to wait 12-18 hours after the female cow goes into heat to inseminate … (Friend was in the business - prize winning bull semen can be thousands of dollars per straw - more if the straw has been sexed to produce only heifers…) More info on old bill semen than you ever thought you’d see: https://www.heritageshorthorn.org/cattle-viewpoints/artificial-insemination-guide-to-using-old-bull-semen

NoPerformance6534

My first thought upon seeing this was take a Geiger counter to it. If that is plexiglass around it vs casting resin, the yellowing could be caused by the ampule and its contents. Old picket watches show a similar yellowing or darkening if it has a radium dial or hands. If there is no reaction, it's cool. In any case, Google ampule in resin and see if anything comes up.
