Glass Bottle Neck/Finish

Three colorless/light green leaded glass fragments from a bottle with a wide prescription finish. Some striations can be seen in the glass along the edge of the rim and the neck, indicating that the finish was hand-tooled. The fragments do not mend but are most likely from the same vessel. The fragments are most likely from a medicine bottle.
