<p>[QUOTE="rish, post: 9608074, member: 77181"]So my grandmother who passed away two years ago at the age of 97 initially moved to Nairobi from India probably in the 30s I'm not entirely sure. My grandad used to sell clothes and sometimes when people couldn't pay him with money, they paid him in gold. We have a few of these pieces and we got them assessed and they are real 22ct gold.</p><p><br /></p><p>My question is, if we were to sell, should we sell at an antiques auction or go to a jeweller to sell where I guess we would just get the price of gold. Also is it illegal that these pieces are not hallmarked? I hope it isn't. On of them the ruby has fallen off or possibly glass.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
