[QUOTE="reader, post: 533113, member: 255"]Nice squash and Taupou took the words right out of my mouth-if you weren’t standing there when it came out identification is in most cases a guesstimate and multiple veins can all come out of one mine. Fine NA jewelry signed by stamping really wasn’t consistent IMO until the 8Os I agree with AJ and would date the piece as late 60s through mid 70s.
