That's actually a hammer and tack puller, not a bottle opener:

Looks like it works on the same principal as the large slide-hammer nail pullers, but using leverage rather than impulse.

I appreciate the post; these are all good things to know as the summer flea market season begins. Now if I find one I'll know what the heck it is.
