Recovered 10/3.
I have to say that I was very surprised when I looked in the bottom of my scoop and saw so much yellow stuff. Everytime I see one of those yellow circles I get excited but this to me was massive and I was awe struck. I quickly stuffed it into my pouch and when I got home found everything to be marked 18K. Yes! Total weight 24 grams!! ;D

So I have 2 questions:

1. Is there some sort of religeous symbolism to the 2 rings and stone?
2. Can I count this as a 2 ring find?

Okay 3rd question: Is this voodoo? The eyeball thing freaks me out.

I can't answer any of your questions, but since nobody else replied I wanted to say THAT is a cool find. You might post a bigger picture though. Any one of the items on that chain deserve a bigger pic than the one you posted of all of them together.

No its not voodoo. Its a Christian crucifix along with some rings. This may have been very special to someone. I dont know what the eye is for. Nice find.

Is this your eye?

The black piece with the lightning bolt looks custom and may be on onyx.

Looks like someone added charms to a Kabbalah necklace. The eyeball that freaks you out, is called the Evil Eye, and it looks like a Hamsa, or Hand of God next to it, those two symbols together are a sign of protection. Then they added a crucifix, and what looks like wedding rings, and a dark colored stone with a lightning bolt. The crucifix is a symbol of Christianity, the wedding rings a symbol of commitment, and the lightning bolt is a symbol of salvation.
What you have is very beautiful, and I'm guessing that it represented someones personal faith.
