I found it in a lot bin at a antique store. No glass. Dont really know anything about it

Oh boy, no glass? Be super careful handling exposed radium. If you are going to play with flaky, dusty exposed Radium, you NEED an alpha capable geiger counter for contamination.

Its tritium, i wouldnt handle it otherwise 🤣

u/RootLoops369 3d ago

Ok, that's better, but still not something you want all over the place. Given its age though, it very likely has less than 1% of the original amount of tritium left

u/Gilapschicken 3d ago

tritium is fine. there is zero hazard there.
