<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 289609, member: 5833"]When I wanted to verify that the hallmarks on a pair of earrings were Egyptian & that I was reading them correctly, I took the earrings to my friendly Yemeni convenience store owner. He barely recognized that the 12k gold was even gold, but did confirm they were marked '12'. Too bad you do not have such a resource Personal name most likely. Just checked. The name Muhammad in Arabic calligraphy does not look at all like the necklace. 'God is Great' looks like this:</p><p> الله أكبر[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
