    Does anyone know what this is? It is from Chow Tai Fook Jewelry co. Looks like a key of some sort? The back has a date of 1998 and a 10. Could that be 10k gold? 20241221_083632.jpg 20241221_083509.jpg 20241221_083530.jpg 20241221_083604.jpg

    Sanshui Municipal People's Government October 1998

    Maybe ask Chow Tai Fook what you have. You can contact them here->

    You can even attach a pic of your item to the contact form.

    Thritto. Those are rarely real, and are given out as gifts.
