    Does the mokume bracelet have a maker's mark?

    No, it is not marked. It tests sterling with my acid test kit.

    Charity shop find, WW1 medal and various ribbons with a Russian coin.
    The coin is thick and very heavy, having a few of them in your pocket would weigh you down.
    I’m posting the medal in Antique Discussion in the hope of finding the original recipient.
