<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Candygirl7, post: 2789777, member: 88466&quot;]Hello to all of you!&nbsp; Wow!&nbsp; I never expected so&nbsp; many replies to my original posting. Like one of your fine people remarked, &quot;I do have a life&quot; and getting ready to go out of town. Jeff B --appreciate your advice on photographing the coin on a white piece of paper. I took the photo on my cheap LG Rebel phone and the lighting probably was not the best. I am not a pro in taking photos. Yes ---the bezel was not purchased from some &quot;cheap roadside stand&quot;. My aunt and her sisters had many custom made pieces in their jewelry collections. I know this to be factual. so I am sure my aunt&nbsp; went to some upscale jewelry in Fla. where she lived and had it made by the suggestion of the jeweler. Wish I knew where it was made but I don&#039;t. </p><p>The color of the coin on both sides is bright gold to me. That being said, you very experienced collectors have the knowledge of many years to state if the coin had flash plating ---or rhodium ---applied to the coin. As I stated before, auntie may have polished it herself---I never have. I do realize that some things have a patina and shoud never be touched or altered. The bezel is unique in my opinon and is 14kt , stamped as such. All I can say is I do truly appreciate all the comments and knowledge you folks have imparted to me. I never did expect to receive offers on the coin on this site and was surprised when this individual contacted me . It was NEVER my intention to drum up sales ---only to get advice. Thanks again to all of you . By the way, I do have some other gold coins that were left to me but that is a story for another day and time. I need to pack. Blessings to all.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
