Default Eagle Flask

I bought this flask at an estate sale today for $5. The eagle is holding 6 arrows and the bottle has 3 stars. My neighbor thinks that it is a confederate war eagle. Can anyone ID this bottle and place a value on it?? Either way it will stay on my shelf and not be sold..

There weren't any other markings on the bottle. Only the eagle on one side.

I'm thinking modern but very nice, worth every bit of your $5.

Take a look at the seam on the bottle, if it runs from top to bottom it is modern, I think I know the bottle you are describing, beautiful bottle ...............
