Re: Gold, silver, or gold on silver???

I still can't get an accurate read on specific gravity! Also, I need to return the bracelet to it's owner. Many, many thanks to all who responded to my post!

I don't think so, Trev, but then again it is soooooooo small I can't really make out any shape! Thanks so much for all your help with this piece.]

Re: Gold, silver, or gold on silver???

HELLO AGAIN, Just checking about the bracelet......is anyone familiar with the "genie lamp" hallmark, even if not sure about the rest. I can't even find a reference to this hallmark--does it represent a maker. a country, an assayer or what? Other than seeing one similar but not the exact m...

Gold, silver, or gold on silver???

Can anyone please help me identify the metal content of this bracelet?

I apologize for the lack of good pictures, but t...
