<p>[QUOTE="aaroncab, post: 361260, member: 3974"]Found this pair at the thrift today for 5 bucks - could tell there were marks but didn't see what they were till I got them out of the store. They are the same design and about the same size, but marked differently. One is marked 333 - for 8K I assume - The other is marked 750(18K I assume) - with another mark next to it I can't make out. The 8K one is slightly smaller in diameter by a mm or two. Seems odd that 2 that seem like a pair would be found together with different fineness. The 18K one weighs 6 grams and the 8K one weights 3.5 grams. They are both slightly out of round...but not badly. About 3" in diameter. Will try to get better pics of the marks but they are tiny!</p><p><br /></p><p>Does anyone know the maker or perhaps even country of origin. I know from googling that 333(8K) isn't a US standard - probably European? Are these sellable or should they head to the scrapper? Thanks much once again!</p><p><br /></p><p>~</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]123441[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]123442[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]123443[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
