1 Gallon MN Stoneware Crock

Question:
I received this crock from my Grandma as a gift a few months ago and I am curious about the history and value of this 1 gallon crock. There are no markings on the outside of the crock, however on the bottom there is a Minnesota Stoneware Co, Red Wing Minn identification pressing. Also the interior is dark brown, almost black and there are some drippings on the rim. It has no cracks, but it does have some very minor chipping. Any information about the details of this crock would be very appreciated. Thank you very much. Jesse
