I'd imagine it is just Alpha decay which is pretty much harmless. You can block alpha particles with a piece of paper and they won't penetrate your skin.
Hello , the geo 210 cost about 100 USD , I find it on eBay USA , the seller is geoelectronics . The Geo 210 is only the pancake prob , the Geiger counter is a " Leni " sold by the same seller .
Hi , the counter is a CD V-700 Leni ( Eni modified by Geoeclectronics , bought on Ebay USA ) the probe is a GEO-210 .Look at my others videos .Thanks , Fred .
@quantumbits uranium is reactive...... That's what the glass is made out of... That's why it's reactive

Ok I don't get it. Why is the glass radio active. Was it made with uranium in the 1940'? Why?

@quantumbits Uranium has been used for an incredibly long time to dye glass.

After seeing this video I'll have to check my mother's depression glass.

Looks older than 1940's, is that lid zinc?

And here I was, thinking the glass was self-shielding :).
Got a clue what the model of the meter and/or probe is?
