My kids and I really enjoy your channel. My twelve year old found a .925 sterling silver necklace for $3 at the thrift store on Saturday. She was so pleased with her find!
I love laying out jewelry while sitting and looking for the marks and such…..I think it is fun to do…😊😊😊
Enjoyed this very much! I love sterling silver, thank you Dr. Lori and staff for making these videos happen🙂
Can't wait! I have a few Native American pieces from Ortega's on the Plaza that I'd love to know the value of....I have to hurry up and get things organized so I can get some appraisals done!
I always enjoy watching Dr. Lori she’s very thorough without a lot of bs
THAT was a truly helpful lecture on silver. Thanks so much! While I enjoy your other videos with guests, this was a nice deep dive into one subject. Hope you can make more of these kinds of videos in the future. Thanks!
I had a piece that was marked 925 , and was marked with the British silver mark and the mark for the Caribbean! It was an Olympic medal, I found for a quarter in a grab bag and sold for over a hundred !
I bought my 12 year old treasure hunters loupes for their birthday. I made them watch this video with me! Good thing is all the nice sterling we find will be mine!
What a gift you are! This was great! Thanks for the awesome online appraisal last week also!
I finally learned about alpaca,German silver and nickel silver.Great job❤️
Luv yr presentation....always so informative...thanks!
Dr. Lori I Love you. You preach jewelry fantastically I found a what look to be like a gold bracelet at a second hand store I took out my loop and looked inside no makers mark anywhere but then I looked on the class just like you just said in your video sure enough it said 585 which everybody knows is 14 carat I paid a whopping $5.95 for that item it weighs 5.9 G and I was awfully happy to pay that for it. I love hunting for jewelry.
Excellent presentation! I have learned how difficult it is to locate some of this information, but so exciting when I find where it is hidden.
Great information as always Thank you, thank you, for everything you share!!!
Thank you Dr.Lori! Very very informative! Of course I knew it would be!
Dr Lori and staff: this was a great information packed video. Lots of refresher info for me and a little new too! My oddest place to find the fineness mark of a piece was inside the bail! I had looked and looked for at least an hour. I knew that it was too nice of a locket to be costume: the pattern on the heart was engraved not stamped or molded in. So as a hail Mary I did a google search and by chance found one like it online. I looked at the photos and one showed the purity mark inside the bail, which is also where I found it on mine. That little locket was 18 K white gold. Im very glad I found that mark so that when I did sell it I could show the buyer the proof!
Learning more every day from you Thanks Dr. Lori
Thanks for today's lesson, Professor!
Ooo I like the San Marco. I don’t have one of those. Thank you Dr Lori you made my thrifting experience awesome.
Great teaching skills. 👏👏👏
