Elemental Mercury


On the ground floor of one of the Crunden Martin Manufacturing Company buildings lay all sorts of interesting artifacts.  They made metalwork in St. Louis, and filed bankruptcy in 1990.

This is a standardized flask of elemental mercury, having around a 2.5L capacity.  It would weight 76lbs if full, and would cost around $2500 at current prices.
