couple questions, is there a number after "mould" , what size is the jar pint 20 oz quart etc? these were mostly product jars and can, depending on size range from 50-75 and up with correct closure and that color. Will be listed in the red book around 624-9 and up

Its says no5. Its the original closure. I would say its a quart size jar

Redbook #625. Looks like a pint (I think they usually measure a bit more than 16 oz), not listed in quart - you may want to check to make sure. RB value $50-75. Here's a similor one.

sure its a 5? perhaps a 3 in 20 oz or quart size? No 5 listed in the red book

 

[nydigger]

It's a 3, the embossing isn't that great lol
