My newest trilobite addition! Not the best prep but it's still a beautiful species. Ampyx or another related species

Antique store haul! Is the blue-green piece uranium or manganese? It glows like uranium does but it also has a faint yellowish tint at some angles like manganese

First spread specimen I've done! How'd I do? Xylotrupes gideon. I know the wings could've went higher but I was nervous and kinda rushing it

Bottles like these are sparse around the woods by my house, but I finally found (parts of) one! "Chattanooga" and "stel..."

Still can't find another complete one, let alone multiple in the same place. I had to go deeper in the woods than I usually go to find this one, farther than I've ever found bottles from this era, so hopefully I can find the spot these are all coming from

Picked up these two beauties from Goodwill a few days ago! Any help confirming the age of them?

Google lens says the goblet was made by Indiana Tumbler and Goblet Co. and dates back to the 1890s to 1903, and the design is hearts of loch leven. The other piece is supposedly by Westmoreland Glass Company and dates back to the 1910s to the 1920s, and the pattern is Thumbelina. It was also reproduced sometime after the 1950s to 1980s. Are these ages correct, and are they both originals?
