This is interesting, but I think we would need some better pics to help identify it.
Maybe take a few pics outside in natural light, dimensions would be helpful as well.

There's many types of snuff. Snuff that a person put the inside of the lower lip.
Powdered snuff could be snorted.
I never chewed snuff but I use to sneak it in for an old fellow in the Psych. ward at the hospital where he spent his winters. (late 70's early 80's)
