Is this a normal 1943 Coca Cola bottle color? Or repro?

This is genuine, in the 1960's the coke bottles were returned to the factory to be washed and refilled. WE used to have fun at the coke machine by placing a bet with mates who could get the farthest away marked bottle. I was in Albany NY and that bottle WASH was washington , would not be a winner would need bottle marked detroit or other city.

I found this ODD colored Coca-Cola bottle and am unsure about it. It is a lime green almost looks like Uranium glass... Has anyone seen one like it? Or is it just a repro? It is in suspiciously fantastic condition.....
