    I have here a Drey mason jar with a portion of my marble collection. I've had these marbles for several years. The other day I decided to run my black light Over my whole collection Of marbles And These were the marbles that Reacted. Plus the jar also reacted as well. Can anyone tell me any information about these marbles? And possibly the jar as well. They obviously appeared to contain uranium, but correct Me if i'm wrong and what time Period were these made Including the jar because I'm not having much luck with Google. The jar has a Pantel on the bottom and no markings.

      looks like maybe one marble glows green, which indicates it may contain uranium. The faint green from the jar is more likely an indication of manganese. Don't know what causes the yellow marbles to glow orange.
