Trade beads?

[YumaMarc]

I acquired these with a lot of other things many years ago. The seller told me they are beads from the fur trade era, but I've always had my doubts. Can someone with more knowledge please tell me if they are actually trade beads, or was I duped?

Look closely at them. The old old ones were made of layers of glass of different colors. More recent ones were painted.
