No such thing as stupid questions brother. That statement about (other side of the Rockies) was my lame attempt at rubbing it in ythat it's always warm and sunny in So. California. If the lid starts to turn that pinkish purple color means it has manganese in it, that would make that lid a very valuable lid. And.... If you can find a clear jar to go with it you would definitely have a rare piece.
