Yeah it's definitely 1880's 1890s are usually clear 1880s is where you get all your color pieces very nice flask though really brilliant honey amber I'd be happy with it facts on the bottom is just the maker Mark it's a keymode looks like me keymode is the name of the mold they made it in strap side whiskey flask or if that what I had writing on it woo-weeOkay guys, this is more of a "When is it?" and a "Who made it?"
I dug this amber strapside today...

...and noticed the base scar. It seems to be made in a hinge mold.
Is the X a maker's mark or just a scar?

Also, the lip is very wonky and seems applied/tooled.
Checked my other flasks and none are applied lip.
Could this be older than 1875?
