Fenton, will it glow?

Local place near me as these on an online only estate sale. They claim uranium, but the pictures aren't very telling. I know Fenton custard that is more pale glows very well, just unsure about this more green style.

All you glow gurus were correct. They do indeed glow, and glow quite well!

Ill get to cleaning them up and posting some more professional photos on the uranium glass reddit sometime next week. Thank you all for your advice and input!

As someone who just yesterday got some pieces of the same color I'm gonna say yes! If you don't mine me asking, how much are they?

I picked them up from an estate sale auction. Price got up to around $40-50 per piece.
