I've had this Glass Crown for better than 20 years, I got it when my Father and I cleaned out the attic of an old town cafe and gas station, in a small town in Indiana. For cleaning it out we got to keep anything that was there. 95% was junk and trash, but there was these two glass crowns my Dad said use to sit atop the standard gas pumps. My sister got the red painted globe and I got the gold one. My sister sold hers right away $35 I believe,but Ive kept mine. It's made of heavy white glass with gold accented paint any info as to it's value would be appreciated. There are no chips or cracks noted in the glass, only a few spots where the gold paint has chiped away. It also has a metal base and metal ring with screws in it that held it to the pump. Thank You
