    I learned so much from this video, which made me go out and buy the tools i need to test almost 40lbs of jewelry that I have had in my closet for ages. WOW and to think I was just going to Donate to the Boy's Club for their sale to raise $$. Again Thank you..

    I would take along a Diamond Selector II as well. They are cheap and can help you determine if a piece of jewelry has diamonds or not. Not the perfect tool, but at least gives you a higher probability.

    I wear a magnetic hematite bracelet. I have loupes everywhere. And I just do it for fun because I am a poet/songwriter. I have over 100 grams of 18k gold.

    The backing on the little pearl earrings is magnetic and the jump ring on the gold necklace has a spring inside that is magnetic

      My gold guy taught me this recently. I suggested that maybe the clasp isn't true gold and he explained that it is it's just the mechanism inside. He also told me that sterling silver can have a tiny magnetic pull.

    I had the best time learning about this jewelry box contents! I hope I can find more of your videos and learn more.I’m waiting for some money. I want to find precious pieces, not just go buy nice stuff. I like old…I might have to go shopping to replace my jewelry lost in a California wildfire and buy a couple…but discovering pieces is exciting…

    Nice video. Sure takes time for all the sorting. A couple of things. On the delicate gold chain - the clasp is called a spring ring, not a jump ring, although there are jump rings that are right next to the spring ring and usually are the terminals on chains and other components to hold the components together. On fine jewelry the jump rings are mostly soldered together and on costume they are not, but can be opened and closed to join the parts. You might want to check the pearl stud posts again, as I think the post backing was what was magnetic not the posts themselves. Worth another look anyway. Enjoyed the search with you.

    I really appreciate these videos - you've taught me a lot about jewelry construction. Some thoughts on stones - The "maybe agate" pendant looks like Howlite, to me. Usually you can see some light through an agate & agate is gonna be worth more than howlite. Clear/colorless tourmaline (achroite tourmaline) is super rare & quite valuable. Odds are really, really low that a random clear stone you're testing is gonna be tourmaline. Almost certainly glass. Thanks again!

    the springs in jump rings are usually not gold or silver. They usually react to a magnet.

    I enjoy your videos and even though they say you cant teach old dog new tricks I am learning a lot from you . Have had trouble finding a mandrel to measure bracelets . Really nifty ruler with the slide measurer on it does it slide wide enough to measure bracelets? Even if not I need to get one , it looks really handy

    The circular clasp on the gold necklace has a metal spring inside it, which is what is causing it to be picked up by the magnet. The clasp will be gold, if that is what it's marked.
    This is a common mistake made by people, so you really need to test the clasp.

    A friend gave me jewelry that belonged to her mother. It was a BIG box. Most of it wasn’t valuable at all. However, there was some gold and silver. A jeweler gave me $250 for it and I gave it to friend. I sold some Trifari earrings also.

    The spring inside the spring ring is steel and will react to a magnet. The spring ring can still be sterling or gold.

    That AVON ring @21:14 is from 1977. I sold AVON then. I also had 3 I accumulated at estate auctions inn box lots. Not sure what the value is as I haven't tried to sell it or researched it. And Caravelle watches is a secondary line from longtime New York watchmaker Bulova. They can sometimes bring decent $.

    Randy, i have a small collection of Sarah Coventry pendants and earrings which I am contemplating selling, including some with fake amethysts, pearls and turquiose. I am not sure of what the pendants go for. Can you give me a range of price from 1960s pieces, without actually seeing them?

    Spring ring clasp. Not jump ring. (Spring rings are clasps. Jump rings are connectors. I'm sure internet will correct me if I'm wrong.)
