[QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 3102784, member: 51"][USER=541]@wenna[/USER] Thank you. Holding the one I have in my hand next to the photos of that listing, it is a dead ringer for mine. An exact copy. That sold one says 1920s Germany. It was interesting as I did some preliminary research, I found several ones that were listed as older. At first assumed more recent, I think they started making these again in the 1970s or 90s when marcasites started popping up in modern jewelry. But can say that the one I have does seem to be high quality, and came from the estate of a wealthy former owner who had some real treasures. (if anyone can make out that word/signature on the pin back, let me know) Also have a total edit on above. This is not marked 950 (confused it with another item I'm getting ready to list), it is marked 800. Thanks for that link. :)[/QUOTE]
