M mitcheal New Member Joined Dec 30, 2017 Messages 18 Dec 9, 2018 #1 I'm new to MD. This is my first jewelry find. I'm assuming its brass due to the color. There are no markings on it. How do I determine that it is brass. How do I determine value if any? Thanks Mitch Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Either way a cool find, I’ve yet to find a precious metal cross pendant. Hope to! Welcome aboard and hope it’s gold!
