So!

The coin isn't real...was really excited, but then noticed in fine print "copy" :(
The gold is 14k though! So not bad.
And could that other piece by any chance be a coin? ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1430286693.851970.webpImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1430286728.037633.webp

Dam thats a nice find. Why would they put a copy in a gold setting? I hope the other one is something good.

Might still be silver. Didnt Fisher museum melt and resale some of the treasure find done up like this?

JKD, I love that pendant find:headbang:

Thanks everyone!! :D but do you guys think that coin is silver or not?
 

Well if they used real gold then what is a bit of silver going to hurt?

At home you might be able to see how fast an ice cube melts on it compared to say a clad quarter.

You could try a drop of bleach.

Or there are lots of kits you can purchase to test at home, or maybe try a jeweler.
