This one is a tough color to determine. I'm being very careful to not over, or understate the color on this old American. It's definitely stronger than a light green, or lime green. But I wouldn't call it exactly apple green either, but that is probably the depth of color that it would be. I've compared with the colors in the back of the new price guide and it's close to the apple green McLaughlin pictured there. The condition is pretty good for this style. Other than a thumb nail sized wire ridge chip the piece is just about mint. Apple green books for 1750-2000 (I don't believe it to be in that range). I would say that it's at least in the green price range, which is 800-1000. With the ridge chip and the problem of trying to pin down the exact color I'll say $595 shipped. Good color in a tough piece, and it displays mint. The color is a bit washed out in the photo. The color in the ridge chip picture is closer to the true color.
