I believe its a vintage Colibri circa 1940s, likely to have more sentimental value than monetary but similar ones go between $20-40

I googled way too long on this. lol I can't find anything even similar. It must be fairly rare It looks rough but may be worth something if its rare enough. Be interested to see if anyone here can find another one on the web. I couldn't. I even tried Colibri in the search after Wild_Wi's reply and nothing close.

What's the state between Saddlebrook and USA? Also what's it look like open?

That might have been a military issued lighter.
