Hi David
As I think you suspect, the whisky inside isn't worth all that much--maybe about $20-25. The alcohol content in distilled spirits is so high that they don't change in the bottle, only in the barrel.
The packaging may be worth more--but I am an expert in beverages, not packaging. Check with the guys at antiquebottles.com. They have a tone of information about old bottles etc, and are very helpful.
Generally, the more valuable collectibles are the old bottles that are also figurines....but it can't hurt to ask.
