Real or reproduction? Value? Union Shield Clasped Hands Flask Dark Amber

[gdog68]

Welcome to the site and happy hunting. That is an awsome collection of flasks. Must have taken a while to get all of those. This is one of my relatives clasped hands flask with e wormser embossed

Previous owner has passed and I know nothing about its history. Is this a reproduction? Real civil war era bottle? Something else? Let me know if other pictures would be helpful!

Here are the images of the bottle

The bottle in the images you provide is definitely a machine made reproduction.
I have a similar bottle. The aqua bottle pictured in the first post is old.

I don't know if this helps. Better help in replies above. But still wanted to share my Clasped Hands Union flask also for comparison.

This looks like a repro to me, I think machine made. I think i see a seem line go all the way to the top

To me it screams 1976 bicentennial. Lots of bottles, flasks, coins, shot classes, stamps, metals, documents, statues, and everything was made to celebrate the time. The list of 1976 bicentennial items is long, but unfortunately the price for most of those items is low.. . Took me a year to sell a McCoy 1976 eagle cookie jar that was like new, finally sold it for $10 just to be rid of it
