Amber bottle. New to hunting bottles.

I am in central Mississippi. I normally hunt petrified wood in one particular area. But I found a neat bottle near my hometown. Is there any way you ladies and gentlemen could help me out identifying this piece?

Also it is about as tall as a credit card. About 1 1/2" thick. The glass has bubbles in it.

It has the shape of an old snuff bottle maybe. Love that amber color, nice find!

I'm going with snuff bottle too but I have never seen one that was that thin. All I have are square. Thats a neat find...d2

I think the square ones were shoe polish bottles also.

As some of the oters have said, I'm pretty sure that it's a snuff jar.

Thanks for the info! I tried to ID it with internet pages by myself but wasn't sure what I was looking at. I do appreciate it.
