Well, the bottle arrived.. In an effort to try and find what is "wrong" ( I am trying Joey !  Cheesy ) with the bottle, truth be told it is all looking "right". Both that it is likely Jet, and also 18th. 

I have tried to burn some pieces scraped with a dental tool from inside, but I just can't get it to burn. I don't seem to have anything around the house that I can use as a red hot element of any kind..

Before I commit to the reasons gathered "so far" supporting Jet and 18th, looking for one more comparison pic...

Tom....

Do you or anyone else with a Jet bottle have the ability to magnify the surface to about x200 ?

Wish I could back off this microscopes non adjustable x200 a bit.

I can not find a microscopic image online for the surfaces of either Jet or Lignite.
