Got this from a box I had bought at an antique store. It has Pat. Dec. 19 1871 crudely embossed around the top. One on side there is the letter D and on the other the number 5. It has a very pale green color. Does anyone know the CD type and what it is worth?

After further research, that embossing, standing alone, was manufactured by Hemingray and only in the year 1871. Hemingray.info lists it as a CD124.2 and considers it VERY RARE.Great find,

nhpharm had it right. It is a CD 120. The CD124.2 has a taller more rounded dome.
