Just a suggestion - try photographing the glass over a light box - this will make all of the embossed letters, symbols, etc come out. If you don't have a light box, you might want to just try holding them up to a window and taking a photo- I've found that this really helps to see the details in the glass. Tim

Unfortunately, even after I downloaded the photos on my computer, magnified the images, and turned them, I still cannot make out enough detail to be of help.
If the colorless glass were cleaned up and if the individual who is looking at the real artifact can tell me what the letters, numbers, and/or symbols are, I might be able to help.
