Help with interesting silver and turquoise necklace I picked up

[buncle]

I purchased this necklace for $9, marked sterling and 925. Don't know the value or what to call it to look it up. Any help on style and/or value?

I know next to nothing when it comes to jewelry, but it looks to me like the handcrafted jewelry native Americans used to sell road side back in the 60s and 70s.

oh yeah, that's a keeper. I see a hundred dollar bill, maybe more.

That's a Native American (Navajo) sterling silver pendant with necklace, Silver beads. All hand wrought. Value? probably worth 185. To 250.
If it's old pawn maybe even more up to 375 - 480.
Silversmith since 1974.

I forgot to add the turquoise looks to be a medium grade with red coral. I'd say it was from the 70's or earlier.

Here's a screenshot of some early pawn!

How do I know if it is "old pawn"? Also it looks like I'm not allowed to call it Navajo on eBay without some sort of tribal proof.
