Wow! This made my day!

This was in a box at a yard sale today. There was probably 20 coffee cups in this box and this was on top inside of one of them! I turn to the lady and say how much is this and she goes $25! Will you take 20 and she says that's fine! Over 3 inches tall 2 1/2" half inches wide. Taxco sterling silver with amethyst stone!

Sorry for the lack of information I have my three kids here plus we're watching two other kids and my wife got called into work for four hours! So I have chaos at the moment! The height is 3 3/8" x 2 1/4" across.

And none of the amethyst stones are chipped they are all pointed and everyone is perfect!

I just sold a 46-gram 925 + amber Taxco pendant for $95 shipped. I started it at $130 a couple of months ago, partly because it was purchased as a personal piece, but wearing that lodestone-like thing for a day was enough. It didn't really generate much interest for the first month so I bumped it down 2x before it sold. I was a little surprised that it didn't go for more considering the exceptional/huge chunk of amber in it, but I only paid $25 so it's fine.

That having been said, the metal work on that pendant was extremely... unimaginative, while yours has a lot more eye appeal. I'd start it at 150-175 and let it ride for a couple of months, if you want to move it faster go to maybe $120 at the lowest. If you aren't in a hurry to sell it you could start it north of $200, all it takes is one person who wants it enough to pay that much and it could go quickly but more than likely it will take a looooong time to sell.

Religious items usually do very well so that aspect of the piece should work in your favor too. Great score, beachkid!
