This is a modern re-make of a 19th century flask - likely made by the Clevenger brothers in New Jersey. See a this discussion of a similar Clevenger flask as well as others on this forum.
These are collectible - a real one in an outrageous green color could easily top 5 grand, but the repros regularly trade in the $10 to 30 range.
