Hi all,
I went to a thrift store today to take a look at some of the things they had.
I saw a shelf with silver plated goblets and glasses but noticed one of them looked different from the surrounding ones and stood out.
So I picked up one of the silver plated goblets and it was light and had a gold tarnished tone.
Then I picked up the odd looking goblet that was amongst the plated ones.
It was heavy, and had a more white silver looking tone to it, and when I say heavy, I mean 368 grams.
So I bought it, but to make this fun and exciting, have a guess everyone!
I put a magnet to it and sure enough it didn't attach to the goblet, then when I looked at the bottom of it, I didn't see and hallmarks but saw a rather worn engraved or stamped text that says something and then Indonesia.
Also there seems to be bent or squashed a bit on the bottom
The only part that does attach a magnet is the handle which if this goblet is of high purity silver would make sense as it could break or bend quite easily.
What do you people think, silver or not?
