Can anyone identify this frog insect piece?

[poongaga]

I have this piece that was my uncles, it looks like two insects on a frog head, it is quite heavy. A jeweler tested it for gold and it tested at 10K. Does anyone know anything about this?

I noticed this was your very first post - so, Welcome Aboard! You didn't list your state (or country) in your profile. So, you might consider jumping over to Sub-Forum: Select Your Area.... for information (i.e., clubs, hunts, finds, legends, maps, etc.) directly related to your state (or country).

Looks African , looks like ashanti stuff ,if it tests as gold, it could maybe me a treated alloy similar to tumbaga?

First thought is Quimbaya. From Columbia.

They made odd looking gold items.
