<p>[QUOTE=&quot;wenna, post: 338263, member: 541&quot;]I am hoping to get some help on origin and time frame this pin may have been made.&nbsp; My best guess at this point is this is a Chinese export piece (?).&nbsp; Measures 2 1/2&quot; by 1 1/2&quot;. No marks of any kind.&nbsp; There a couple of spots on the lower right edge, but too obliterated to tell if they are/were anything.&nbsp; It tests as silver but not sure of what fineness it would be...I don&#039;t think sterling (it just doesn&#039;t shine up as nice and quickly as sterling does).&nbsp; The trombone clasp makes me think as old as late 1800s but the hinge looks newer.&nbsp; So maybe &#039;30s onward?&nbsp; Any thoughts on the scene depicted ...looks sort of picnicky to me, next to water with some flora and fauna with the sun shining down.&nbsp; Am I close on anything?&nbsp; Thanks for your thoughts!!![ATTACH=full]113531[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]113532[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]113533[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]113534[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
