25 pounds and a reserve price, too? Boy, these things must be keenly sought after in the UK!
It sold for £77.00! Apparently to a collector of petrol cans, judging by the buyer's ID "petrol.cans". Like Richard said, being of WW1 vintage, it is a really rare example.

Currently there's another 2 gallon can up for auction: WWII CDN TWO GALLON PETROL TIN "FLIMSY" CMP
