Yahoo! Went to an estate sale at o'dark 30 this morning, but I got spot #1. Picked up a pocket watch, a bathrobe, and some other stuff. The...
The pin looks like the stone is rhodochrosite. Not a valuable stone, but naturally pink. Pretty stuff.
Not a freakin' clue, but late 60s from the looks of them.
Welcome!
Thanks. I always thought I caught a big dose of Stubborn from my dad. But now I think Mom is as much to blame. So of course tomorrow there's an...

I've seen pink opal before once or twice and didn't think this was it. It doesn't have the fire or colors of precious opal, or the price tag....
