    Description

    ***ATTN ebay:  This item does not contain any pure Radium metal.  This item does not and may not produce any harmful ionizing radiation and does not violate any of ebay's listing policies regarding hazardous materials.  It is non-hazardous and will be shipped by UPS ground.  Please contact me before removing this listing.***
    This listing is for a representative sample of Ra in the form of 3 vintage luminous watch hands.  Size, shape and color of the hands will vary at random based on what I currently have in stock.
    Please note that the hands no longer glow on their own, the ZnS has since burned out.
    Pure Radium metal is impossible to find but these watch hands make the perfect Ra sample for the element collector.  They would also be great for a Geiger counter check source or be of interest to the vintage watch restorer.  When taking readings, a thin window probe is required or you will not get accurate measurements.  The hands must also be removed from the vial first.
    Please note that the hands no longer glow on their own, the ZnS has since burned out.  This must ship UPS ground only.
    This would make a great addition to someones element collection. Please check my other listings for more element samples.
