Frank B Norton Green Glazed Crock

[plight]

I recently purchased this  crock at auction.

I absolutely love the green glaze made by Frank B Norton Worcester.

I have another more traditional one from my grandfather.

Anyone have any idea of the value and or age?  I have never seen a green glazed crock like this and could not find anything on line either.

I have about 5 photos in this link click on the arrow.  I provided a photo of my other one to show the difference in color.

Had a brief look, looks like circa 1880-1890, and 300 to 400 dollars if there’s collector interest because of the green glaze.

I think the green glaze is copper based and the blue calligraphy is cobalt based.

Thanks for the info.
I thought it was worth at least $300

i paid $150 but may hold onto it for a while because I truly love it .  I collect a lot of pottery.

I am out of town but will take a photo of the bottom and interior .  I was unsure of the age because it is in such good condition, a lot of times you find cracks chips but this seems to be in excellent condition .
