https://www.ebay.com/itm/Clint-Corder-Osage-Glass-Turkey-Call/264820174871
Might want to change the title and descriptions on a few things...you've got a glass call not a crystal and I wouldn't list it as mint, looks like you had some stuff laying on top of the call where it got discoloration as osage darkens over time and if the light or oxygen isn't hitting it evenly (like if you have something sitting on top of it) it will change colors unevenly. Clint has even had that happen to him, as he kept a call that didn't turn out and after a few years the same thing happened.
I think that is more shadows than wood changing color, looks good.
But if your going to post this call here in the classifieds you need to post a price to buy it, and not a link to EBAY. Classifieds are for calls for sale on our site.
We have a place for EBAY Links directly under the Classified Pot Call category.

looks like a shadow where he was over it when he took pic.on the back of call.
The call was posted here with a price. After sitting I guess the OP decided to move it to ebay.

Or just ask for better picture

it wasn't shadows, it was what I was saying, he took a few pics at different angles and it didn't change at all. I've seen it happen a few times with osage.
Looks like sapwood to me. The photos show it on the top, inside and bottom. Sun light would not reflect up on the bottom to match the lines on top and inside.

Yes the top had sap wood, I was never talking about that, there's a big triangle taking up a fourth of the call on the backside of it. Osage gets darker over time, something had covered part of the call up where it blocked light from hitting it thus that part didn't darken as fast and create a discoloration. If you look at the photos he takes different angles where the call is turned 180° and it rotates with the pic and stays the same thus you know it's what I'm saying.
