<p>[QUOTE="Joan, post: 512761, member: 5398"]The only mark on this bangle bracelet is "MEXICO." I don't have a silver tester, so I'm wondering if this is silver plated or alpaca. I have other pieces of Mexican jewelry that are signed alpaca, but have never seen a piece that's stamped Mexico with no other marks. The bracelet was tarnished and didn't show any signs of a plated finish wearing off when I polished it. Has anyone seen this type of mark? Do you know whether the bracelet is new or old?</p><p>[ATTACH=full]166172[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]166173[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]166174[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
