    Someone with good elbows and who can still walk quickly, but yeah ... they cut her deals too. I got something for a buck that should have been a buck, but that they started out asking $3 for. Other than that, full price for the likes of me.

    Oh, sounded to me like she was already in there before door opened.

    Today however...wave that $100 bill goodbye. Got some NICE stuff, however. Two pieces of Israeli sterling, scrap gold .... and portable altar thingie for giving last rites.(LOL) I bought that because of some scrap metal bits inside that I'm going to start a thread on to see if anyone recognizes the hallmarks. The kit will probably end up at another church. I should probably start a thread for the bowl too. DSCF7071.JPG DSCF7076.JPG DSCF7050.JPG DSCF7047small.jpg DSCF7073.JPG

    Nice haul! Hard to beat those iron sticks for a buck. Particularly like the silver modernist pin with green stone. Any marks?

    Thanks. The butterfly ring is my favorite I think; it's unmarked silver, but it's a poison ring. I've seen my share, but never a butterfly.

    It's Israeli Eilat and silver. The marks are faint but I don't need to read the whole thing to know that rock when I see it. It's one of the things I hoard; it's mined out in Israel, so prices are bound to go nowhere but up. Sometimes you'll find modern bits with blue/green stones in them too, but that's Ethiopian stone imported in place of what they can't get any more.
