This bottle does not have a code on the bottom so it is most likely one of the bottles manufactured between 1933 - 1940 (details below).
Internet sources point to this being military issue and the original color being green. This one is silver but appears to have once been green as evidenced by a streak of green paint peeking through along the top. Some rust and 1 ding in the exterior as shown in the photos. Interior appears to be stainless and in good condition.
