[QUOTE="TheOLdGuy, post: 103773, member: 878"]May I ask a question of the glass experts gathered here, please. Is "Ruby Red Glass" copyrighted by Anchor Hocking? Was, and expired? Yes, I've heard that the FCG coins can easily be frosted. But I've also heard that there are documented non frosted coins distributed by Fostoria in the early days. Lancaster's early green glass was easily distinguishable from Olive or Emerald. Also the red. Very orangey. My standard check now is the dots on the coins. Unless they have finally reworked the moulds some of the dots are non-existent, especially on the bottom of the coins. Please don't take this wrong, but I consider Lancaster coin glass as reissued, not reproduced. Repro to me is something with a new mould.[/QUOTE]
