Edie Posted November 14, 2023 Report Share Posted November 14, 2023 Hello! I just joined and am very excited to be here! I pulled out a couple specific marbles to share here. These ones glow green so I think that means they are uranium glass marbles? I was trying to look them up online when I found this site! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted November 14, 2023 Report Share Posted November 14, 2023 Welcome to the Marble Connection Edie. A green glow under UV doesn't necessarily mean it is "uranium glass". There can be a variety of compounds in glass that react with UV. The front and middle marbles that you are showing appear to be newer Marble King Rainbows. They tend to have two polar patches of the same color. It's a little harder to tell from these photos but the back marble may also be a newer Marble King. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only recently discovered that some look cool under a UV light, so I'm definitely inexperienced! The 3rd to last and 2nd to last pictures are the marble in the back from the first few pictures, so it's probably as you say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
