I unearthed this nice bottle at my mine.
Not sure of the age or if it has any value but it's in excellent condition and I have a place for it.  I cleaned it carefully and well using techniques that I researched online. If anyone knows old bottles... I'd appreciate any insight as to what it is. Looks like a soda bottle.  The glass is relatively thick and has a nice light lavender or amethyst coloration to it. The lettering "Kuner" is raised and beveled. Here are a couple pics.

Great info Chris, thanks for the update!
 Nice finding out more information on your old bottle to help tell it's story!Love the old bottles, especially the ones with blues and purples.  Here are some bottles we found in an old dump near Fairplay several years back, but none as fine as your was.
