Stopped at Goodwill on my way home tonight just to browse and see what I could find. Store was busy full of people. After 30 minutes of not finding anything of value I noticed a worker had put out a new green cart full of merchandise at the end of the aisle for people to look at and to be stocked on the shelves. There was about 8-10 bracelets on top and right away I noticed that two of them were sterling. I was hesitant to ask him how much they were because there were no prices on anything and thought he would check and mark them high. I reluctantly asked "how much for the bracelets?". He said all bracelets were $1.99. Ok can you mark them for me? No, just take them to the checkout and they will ring you up. So I took a third junk bracelet to throw in the mix. Waited my turn and then told the young lady that all these bracelets were $1.99. She actually checked her price list and rang them up, $6.42 with tax!
#1 25 Gram Sterling Fish Bone Bracelet marked TP-35 Mexico 925(must have been made after 1979)
#2 15 Gram Sterling and Turquoise bead Necklace, marked sterling and then a sunburst mark. Five strands on each side....
#3 junk...
I would really like everyones opinion on how much these are worth as jewelry items, not scrap. I will probably list them on ebay. I searched and found one similar to the fish bone bracelet but not an exact match. The Turquoise bead necklace will take me a while to search and find something similar. Wondering if anyone recognizes the sunburst mark?
....Thanks for looking......
Found the necklace, here it is:
