I feel pretty safe in saying that the people who say we are profiting off of others misfortunes wouldn't walk off and leave a diamond ring or hundred dollar bill lying on the ground if they happened to see one. Just my opinion, which ain't worth much lol.
It's a nice example of Early American Pattern Glass. I am guessing this one to be from the 1880's to 1890's. I will try to flip through a few reference books and see if I can find the pattern name for you later this week. There is a good website about this type of glass if you are interested...
Interesting finds. "Lock Magnet" might be another name for you this week lol. I'm looking forward to seeing how that huge padlock turns out after the vinegar.
