That's sound advice, as to solid gold scrap, at least. I do sell scrap gold in Miami to major buyers. I don't think they care to mess with gold...
Thanx, that's what I figured. I just wanted to be sure the lack of ratio was not a disqualification of it being Gold Filled, at all.
Absolutely!
Sorry, I certainly didn't mean to offend. I come here because I have often seen the wealth of knowledge available. Having seen a few answers...
I understand how that may sound, but the gentleman was a pastor who just did this to supplement his ministry. He more recently developed...

I didn't think so; I just know next to nothing about most stones.
I don't believe so- as far as I know, location initials were only used with the later registration system, nothing to do with the Eagle marking...
I am really most interested in what to call the stone...
Here's another view of that mark: [ATTACH]
I thought the same, but haven't found any similar marks with "GAC". Your example doesn't have any other similarities, either. I have seen some...
I bought a couple of interesting silver rings from the same estate as the brooch/necklaces I posted recently. I need help to ID the stones. This...
