If it is a blue glass jar than it is an old one. They used those jars to store many things from foods to poisons during the civil war. Also, check the lid if it has one. Metallic lids were used on the older mason jars. I have also heard that if the jar doesn't have a seam going down the side of it, it is one of the oldest models that mason produced. They hand blew jars before machine glassing them.

How much is a blue 4 gallon November 30th 1858 mason jar with lid and a star on it worth?
it's worth whatever the highest bidder is willing to pay!!!!!! ------------------------------------------------------ While the previous answer is true in the most general terms, it doesn't answer the question in any valuable way. Mason Patent "November 30th 1858" jars were patented in, of course, November 30, 1858. These jars were made well into the 1900's, most recently, to my knowledge, in the 1970's or 1980's as large pickle jars. Most jars are found in the quart size, with pint and half gallon sizes found less frequently. There are many colors of these jars, ranging from aqua to olive green and yellow. Aqua is the most common color, other colors increase the value of these bottles. True Mason's patent jars typically have a zinc screw on cap with a milk glass liner. Older jars may have bubbles or "hammering" in the glass, crude lettering and a rough cut top edge. Values on original Mason Patent jars range from $8-$12 for an average aqua jar with no outstanding features. Values go up into the high hundreds for a rare version. If the lid on this jar, as I suspect, is more like that on a modern jar, it is probably a reproduction used to market pickles in the 1970's or 1980's - this jar, while not common is not very valuable. It would sell for about $20 or so, though you can find some trying to sell for as much as $100. This is where the first poster's observation comes in. If it is actually an older one the value could get much higher. Without photos it is impossible to make a guess.
Why are your canning jars cracking when the hot food are placed in them?
The most common reason for jar breakage is thermal shock. Either you are putting cold food into hot jars, or hot food into cold jars, or cold jars into boiling water.To prevent jars breaking when putting them into a water bath, begin by washing your jars in hot water. If the water in your sink is not too hot for your hands, it will not shock the jars. After rinsing, put them immediately into the water bath and fill it over the top of the jars with hot tap water. Bring the jars to a boil and let them remain there for 15 to 20 minutes. Afterward, turn off the heat, and let the jars remain in the water bath until you are ready to fill them. Fill hot jars with hot food. lid and ring the jars and return them immediately tot he water bath (if you are hot bath canning--if you are pressure canning, put the jars into the pressure canner rack and fill the canner with hot water after the jars are all in place. (DO NOT PUT COLD WATER OVER HOT FILLED JARS).
