Found this while doing a porch restoration today under the original flooring. Gold?

I have done nothing but wash it off. It is a necklace of some sort made from what looks like small gold coins.
I don't recognize the coins, but they are quite small, not much bigger than a thumbtack head.
All seem to be worn just a little differently.

Any Ideas?

Don't look like gold coins I've ever seen.. In fact don't look like gold at all, but a cool find...

Belly dancing chain belt...

Looks like a form of costume jewelry - perhaps used in belly dancing - Bling !
(treasurehunter beat me to it as I was replying - good call )

Thanks all. I am pretty sure it is just a junk necklace.

Nice find, but I'd be going back and try to find the dancer who lost it.

If she's under that porch id bet she's not that good looking anymore
