Bismuth is element #83. It is silver solid with a pink tinge and has a melting point of 271 degrees Celsius. I first saw in in chem lab in 1958 and liked its appearance because it is one of the few elements with colour (copper, gold and sulfur are other examples). On the Periodic Table of Elements, it is below antimony, arsenic, phosphorus and nitrogen, a very strange group. Re/The Merck Index of Chemicals and Drugs, 1952.
