Ixnay on letting local antique "specialists" in on the secret!
Write it down or your brain busts?
A lot of folks don't, and if they're selling it to me as costume I hope they never find out!
If the "greenies" have gone light green color, they might be best left alone. (light green means "inert" or no longer causing more damage.) If...
For a buck? I'd throw a dollar at that any old time!
Either older than dirt or they sure want to be.

Even I've seen this one before. I'd imagine the model was a hot seller at the time.
Unless it was cut down to fit the frame, or due to some sort of damage. I'd like to know what her deal is too.
The only Spanish\Latin in my ancestry were some Roman soldiers who got handsy. What's my excuse? I wear men's rings whenever they fit my fingers.
My first reaction was Turkish too, with all that wirework. I'd bet on .800 silver or similar.
