Help ID This Part

Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

Hi - While cleaning (well, kinda) up my shop I found a bag of mysterious parts. They were probably part of a flea market parts haul several years ago. Camera batteries are dead, so no pics but . . . they're multicolored like "tropical fish" caps but smaller - about the size of a very small ceramic, with similar radial leads, except that the body is more rounded - about the size of the head of a kitchen match. Colors are red on top, orange in middle, yellow on bottom and on one side there is blue, which covers all the other colors along that edge.
What do I have here? I assume it's a cap - it measures 240 nano Farads. Is it a tantalum or ???
Any particular place these were used - or place where they shouldn't be used?
Thanks . . . Charlie
