This Weeks Finds 5/27

This week I found 3 1/4 oz of sterling silver, 5.3 g of 10K, and 1 gram of 14K. I believe that the red enamel gold pin is Masonic. The 14K pendant has three diamonds in it. The weird thing is that most of jewelry was in a bag of jewelry at an estate sale. They put more sterling and gold in the $5 bag than what was in the case.

Nice antique filigree bracelet. Is it 800 silver? That Eagle enamel piece is interesting. Have you found anything specific about it yet?

the bracelet is only signed Mexico but its definitely silver. I found one a few years ago. I believe the 10K eagle pin is a 32nd degree Masonic pin. I found a tri fold 32nd degree pin 5 years ago and they look similar. However, the 32nd degree is supposed to have a double headed eagle vs mine which has one head.

It looks like a watch winder versus a pin, no?

I thought the same thing but it has a pin mechanism on the back.

Could still be a watch winder, years ago i found a small pendant watch with a similar pinback winder, was a eagle in a wreath. was a smaller watch, more like the size of a wristwatch, but had a pinback winder like that.
