I was out at balloon fiesta park in Albuquerque and last year they had a hemp festival. I found something rolled up and thought it was a piece of can but it wasn't sharp. I decided to open it up and low and behold. It is called a lux leaf. It is a inert leaf dipped in copper, silver, and 24kt gold. They sell for around $90 to $130 online. THe ring is Stainless steel, the crystal has a .925 band around it, and the small bracelet is a babies sterling silver Native American bracelet.

Those are some cool finds, especially the gold-dipped "inert" marijuana leaves! I seem to recall a few get togethers, where most attendees were pretty much inert.

Wouldn't mind finding a little gold, marijuana leaf myself. Who knows what else you'll find there! Lol. Well done.

Actually,
I'm pretty sure that's a gold MAPLE leaf.
Look closely. It's a single leaf as opposed to seven individual leaves.
