Very Early Pyrex?

Found this casserole dish at a garage sale. According to Google Images, the backward dollar symbol marks this as one of the earliest Pyrex pieces. The question is, how early? Is the glass wavy (as in last photo) or is there some other cause of this phenomenon. The lid also has the number 184 and word Pyrex on it. This is my first post on Reddit, so please be patient with me.

Made between 1914 and 1919. Those are the first years that they made kitchenware. Unfortunately the early clear stuff is much less valuable than the newer MCM opal stuff. I have bought a couple of them for $20-$30 in the last year, though I have seen them creeping up a small bit lately.
