most likely soft glass ( could be 90, 96 or 104 or anything in between) and is just the "vaseline glass" that used to be so popular.
no matter the coe it's a good find! i know people who would do dirty nasty things to get a chunk of uranium tubing that thick.

that being said, and coe notwithstanding if you want to sell that tube (or trade for marbles) PM me

Looks like boro tubing. Might cross post this in the boro room. I bet they will know in 5seconds

I love uranium glass *swoon*, I've not ever seen soft tube. Not that it doesn't exist, I've just never seen it personally.

Uranium falls in so many coe's, like 32, 40, 95, 115, etc , you wouldn't know unless you tested it.

As for what those were? No idea!
