Plutonianfire Posted April 15, 2023 Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 2 hours ago, Steph said: Your red glow might be from manganese. There are many chemical components which give UV glow -- cadmium, manganese, selenium, calcium, boron, etc. -- but I have trouble keeping straight which does which. Please see photos of some other marbles that are glowing orange under UV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted April 15, 2023 Report Share Posted April 15, 2023 The top marble appears to be a game marble. The second might turn out to be a Peltier Rainbo. More views are needed for ID-ing marbles. What happens under blacklight isn't often used for ID. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted April 16, 2023 Report Share Posted April 16, 2023 x2, agree w/ Steph on the ID's. Every company made UV marbles (glowers) a few are worth a bit of money the rest just, well "Glow" or react to uv. a good portion of Jabo marbles glow and it has no bearing on the value. If you go vintage as in Akro (Lemonade-Limeade-Cherryade, etc) some have quite a bit of $$. Glowing as Steph said, can depend on several chemical additives besides depleted uranium. Please, if you can post multiple views of each marble it would really help in a more concise ID. and value assessment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think it's fair to look at others assessments of it and decide if you come up with the same ID and either at an alternate or times x4 it. At least that's how I was encouraged to contribute... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
