Sorry to say but it’s only worth about $1-$2 unless it’s a yellow color. I actually have a lot of 6 for sale on ebay right now with no bids. Here’s the link to my auction:

This flask is Yellow-not amber. Thanks anyways.
Just wanted to add that it's a shame they're not worth more. Those are nice.
maybe it's the weight. Have you tried one at a time?

...Someone should start a federation of antique bottles and define things like color and condition once and for all.

Hello everyone,
This has been very informative. I think there should definately be standardized colors
for bottles also. I guess I'll go with yellow amber for this one. A little more yellow than amber though. Beautiful example Lobeycat. I'd like to see that after tumbling. Maybe someone can make a color chart and post it on this site.
Thanks to every one of you.
