<p>[QUOTE="Ce BCA, post: 4041327, member: 18716"]Agree, also look closely after the 'K' it isn't clear, but it looks like there may be (or has been rubbed) 'R'. This may indicate rolled gold - are there any exposed areas such as the claws or edges that are a different colour and not gold tone? It may just be some odd alignment of marks and nothing at all, but may be worth checking. Note that rolled gold will test as gold unless you file through the coating to the base metal.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
