Help with age and description on this silver pin with black rhinestones

Any help appreciated. I found this at a local thrift for 3.99 then found the exact one sold on Ebay for 2.00 so I already lost lol
It is 1 3/4" wide.

I just looked several pages of lovely 19th Century Tunbridge Marquetry Boxes on Ebay- gorgeous stuff,all for 4150 and less.
Ebay's still glutting the market on some things.

 

?? Why are you talking about a box when the thread is about a piece of jewelry?

 

Relax.

 

I think he was blaming Ebay for my loss
Lol

Are you sure those are black rhinestones and not marcasites?

 

Yes Marcasites. The other one was described as Sterling and Marcasite.

That was my murky point Mikey & Bakers.
I see amazing items on Ebay sell for $100-$200.Considering one could put in dozens/hundreds of hours picking-some of the 'lowball' prices can be frustrating if one's a Seller.
Someone here shared a beautiful 19th Cent Tunbridge -style box with Us. I thought 'Too pricey for me', then alas-I see a whole herd of them on Ebay for what I'd call cheap.
Good for Buyers but lousy for Sellers. Good generally for Buyers unless that is- You've been bit by MCM bug !
