I found this vintage sterling silver pin and couldn't pass it up. It's a little smaller then a a dime so I over paid a little over spot but it was too cool to pass up for 99 cents. I figured I could use it on my suits or a tie or something. I wouldn't have noticed it unless it didn't have the bottom half of its old box with a small tag with the words sterling silver printed on it. I looked on the bottom of the pin and it had sterling actually on it.

I haven't had a chance to weigh it but can't be much. Still cool when you can find something at a shop like that and it not be super expensive.

It's pretty cute and it has a hallmark on the back. It's not always easy to find a match but you never know.

Anyway, for 99 cents it would be hard to pass up. Enjoy!
Rest in Peace

Need find! Treasure hinting at 2nd stores is always fun.
