    The "celtic" pin with the three pointed knot is called a Triquetra. The "fruit" is actually a thistle; the national flower of Scotland.

    I LOVE that sterling silver rope necklace with the toggle clasp. It's gorgeous. I noticed you were talking about gold plated and gold filled pieces of jewellery, and gold plated jewellery is made from a base metal, like pewter or brass, and then it's coated with a thin layer of gold. However, gold filled jewellery is made from gold, but it's hollow inside, and it's filled with another metal that's not as expensive as gold, often copper is used to fill the hollow gold components. So, gold filled jewellery is far more valuable than gold plated jewellery, because it's actually made of gold,so the gold can't wear off, like it can with plated stuff. I make jewellery myself and the gold plated components I buy are much cheaper than the gold filled ones. For example, a small gold filled clasp costs about $12 - $14, while a plated clasp can cost as little as $2.00 or less. Love from Amanda Jones in Melbourne, Australia P.S. The prices I quoted were the Australian prices. In America, the prices would be cheaper, but still comparable in terms of gold filled vs gold plated 🤗❤❤❤

      I agree, that interesting rope lookIng necklace that was very thick, yet very pliable and movable. Hi saw some thing online with some sort of tutorial as well as interesting videos on TH-cam regarding the ancient arts and it’s possible it could be a byzantine design.

    Myself, I find that other people's jewellery, coins, glass ware, pretty much everything ....is valuable and expensive. Mine cost me to have it hauled off to the dump. On coins mine is always the wrong mint, date, etc and if I am lucky it will be of face value. I find a coin that is valued to be worth something, is only good if I find somebody else that will be willing to buy it. Pretty much goes for most my other stuff too. If I was hunting for opossum feces, I wouldn't even get a hackberry. God just looks at me and says "Boy, your loved, but your plight in life is to be poor. Just be happy your loved and stop wasting your money on Lotto, and other people's stuff, because once it's yours, it becomes worthless."

    Hi Rusty - I just discovered your channel when I watched a couple of your other videos, and I wanted to thank you for sharing the information your experiences have taught you - I am finding it so helpful that I subscribed to your channel just now. I live in Silicon Valley and until I retired, I was an independent broker of used Hi-Tech Vacuum equipment in the Semiconductor manufacturing industry. I had learned that because hi-tech vacuum equipment is so expensive to purchase new that some companies prefer to buy used equipment, repair it, then use it. For example, some of the equipment used in the field of Cryogenics are big "vats" in which the main critical component is a sealing flange that must be precise - but this one company had a machinist on staff who was really skilled in resurfacing the flange to the necessary tolerances, so they could acquire a used vat for a pittance of what a new one would cost; resurface the flange; and the equipment would be up to spec. Any kind of equipment in the hi-tech semiconductor industry costs a lot of money, and I'm not talking just hundreds of dollars. In my own small way, I helped them re-use precision equipment rather than it getting scrapped. My moral compass believes that the workmanship that goes into creating such precision equipment must be valued instead of scrapped. Now I'm learning about other used stuff from you! Thank you for sharing with us all here on TH-cam, Rusty.
