My wife and I went to our first city-wide garage sales this year on Thursday and today. On Thursday we found this pendant
No markings but had the info attached. It's not magnetic but I don't know how to verify it's actually silver. My wife thinks it may be a homemade piece. Paid $2.00
Friday my wife found these Sterling charms for $1.00 each.
The Gold Panner and who we think is Paul Revere don't have any markings but aren't magnetic. The others are stamped STERLING.
I'm not sure how old Tinkerbell is. Is there a way to determine the year range it was made in by the way it is marked? I found one that looks similar on eBay that sold for $16.99.
