Was going through my junk metal bucket last night to get rid of and found a ring that i thought was a junk ring. I realized that it was still shiny. It had no markings but i had it acid tested any way. Turns out it is solid 14k! It pays to double check your junk.
That's why you should never throw your "junk" finds out on the way home !
I always dump my plastic Folger's Coffee can out on the work bench when I get home and double check everything before tossing it in the recycle bin.
Recheck w/18k acid, the color appears to be very rich, if you did a 14k test it will pass, but I would check it was 18k. That style of ring appears to be of Middle eastern, the middle eastern love 18&24k. I used to work in a Pawn shop took in much gold.
[attachment 324432 IMAG2479.jpg] Yes, always double check your junk, I found this in mine, so small I missed it. Haven't had it checked yet, kinda looks like gold? Not tarnished.
