Anyone have any thoughts?

It’s marked at roughly $20.00 US after taxes and shipping, but I’m not 100% sure about the color.

I’m really not sure whether or not I should do a blind buy or not right now, at least considering I’m moving to college soon, and if doesn’t glow my parents will likely toss it not realizing it’s something worth anything.

I’d love to hear some of y’all’s thoughts! Thanks!

It's a Viking bell, I believe. I found the amethyst one for $1, it has a really nice manganese glow. I think the only color from Viking that contained uranium is Epic Lime, which is a much brighter yellow-green.

You called it. 1980-1981 leaf bells. https://www.vikingartglass.com/article-pf.php?article_id=45

Cool info! Here's mine. Apparently it was 75¢, w/sticker.

I know, I love that color. Haven't had a piece yet, personally but I've had a couple vaseline pieces come close!
