TN hunters,
I took out the Ace 250 to this rest stop the other day where I found my first shield nickel a few weeks back (see my previous post http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,309321.msg2237431.html#msg2237431). I was just trying to find some clad and have a little fun. This 'bracelet' rang up as a dime/quarter. The jewelry comes apart by pulling a tab out of the main body of the bracelet. On the tab it says, "STER. PPC" (see picture scan below). I assume this means it is silver plated but can someone confirm what these initials stand for? Also the size of the item is strange...way too big for a ring and seemingly too small for a bracelet unless it was a really young child. The item is less than two inches in diameter. It does have a nice design with a red and green flower pattern. It actually looks more gold in color than silver but I know it is not gold.
I'd love to hear any of your insights on this piece.
Thanks,
T-man

That's a "baby bracelet" - literally, for babies or very small wristed children. The STER. PPC is most likely that the bracelet is solid sterling .925 and PPC is the makers hallmark.
