The jar on the left is a beaded neck seal ...(The zink lid seals on the neck bead) the jar on the right seals with the glass lid/zink band just below the lip... so not a bead seal... The lid goes to several different Mason Improved jars, hope that helps-John

Thanks John, but I am still totally puzzled, been trying to figure this out all day....why do some of the bead seal jars go for so much on EBy ($100.) Are they only the Ball Mason 's? (Not Ball Perfect Mason?) ?? Thx - Julie

Many, many factors go into determing what a jar is worth...being a bead seal does not make a jar worth any more....but vice versa also..it does get confusing....it takes time to learn...age does not always determine the value of the jar..production time (how long was it made), color.....producer...LOTS goes into determining what a jar is woth...
But to help with your earlier question on bead seal and improved closure...I have attached a couple of pictures I used for reference....hope they help...
