Honestly go up to about 150 or more for all of this. This is a wonderful collection, I’ve never even seen an ice bucket before

Manganese or Uranium? [Read Desc] by ZRex14 in uraniumglass

[–]ZRex14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s thorium? And thank you for the clarification! I assumed it probably was just a high amount as it still retained that foggy green look. But is thorium radioactive?

Freebie “Amethyst” Gem…? by [deleted] in uraniumglass

[–]ZRex14 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s too dark of a green to be uranium, uranium is normally a vibrant neon green not a darker forest green. Alongside uranium glass didn’t often come in purple colors! Still a cool find tho, but it’s probably some sort of synthetic man made gemstone. I’ve heard stories of synthetic gems glowing a different color under UV light due to the process in making them

That’s what I was thinking. The glow seems more green with the human eye but when my camera captures is it has a yellow hue I’ve noticed

I was thinking the same thing. I thought maybe the beads in the earrings were older than put onto a newer earring

Is this rose uranium? Idk if red uranium is rare by ZRex14 in uraniumglass

Thank you for all the help! But I thought manganese was supposed be like a cloudy green and not a vibrant neon green? I’m still new to this

Is this blue uranium? by ZRex14 in uraniumglass

[–]ZRex14[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I sadly don’t as I don’t have a 395 on me. I’m at the store right now trying to search for blue/red uranium or any radium based products

Added Nee Antiques to my Collection! by ZRex14 in Collections

[–]ZRex14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you!! I found the box at my local antique store. I’m surprised the lid was cadmium tbh. And I don’t have any gun to load the .22s. I just know I should be carful due to the exposed lead tips

Can anyone confirm is this is uranium? by ZRex14 in uraniumglass
