    Yes, a rather mixed up young man. But we're all a mixed up these days, eh?

    I did it many times, Charlie, Princess Anne, The Queen and Prince Philip, Margerat Thatcher.

    I also had to do bomb and explosive searches before they arrived

    Me and Lizzie were on talking terms :hilarious:

    It all ended in 1992 when I retired.

    A few goodies this week :)

    A lucite and beaded 1950s purse, a tapestry purse, a made in Austria pin, a pot metal and rhinestone bracelet and a late Victorian costume belt buckle:

    This is the inside of the tapestry purse including its change purse:

    You have had quite the impressive career then & now. Thank you again for sharing. It is always nice when someone has non paparazzi pictures.

    Just found this 22k necklace, $8 at a consignment shop. 20 grams with the onyx beads. It’s been about 20 years since I’ve found anything this high karat.

    Clearly marked 916 in three places, from a consignment shop where the consignor makes the prices.

    With that S-clasp and high caratage it is probably Southeast Asian.

    $1,959.34 at Friday night's prices, but then you have to deduct the weight of the onyx.

    Somebody had zero clues. May have though it was gold-plated silver. (I love finding that kind of gold-plated silver.) Congrats!
