[QUOTE="stracci, post: 5243477, member: 13814"]Ok, I took it to a well regarded pawn shop instead. They weighed it at 208.5 grams, or 6.5 oz. They confirmed sterling. The guy tried to tell me that the engraving was done with an electric tool, and that it said 769........ I just played dumb, and then he offered me $100.... I said I'd think about it, grabbed my spoon and ran! Kthanksbye!![/QUOTE]
