<p>[QUOTE=&quot;+VGO.DVCKS, post: 7951861, member: 110504&quot;][USER=125206]@JJ Walker[/USER], your point is well taken, at least from here, that your daughter is already into archaeology, and that if you got her this ring, it wouldn&#039;t happen in a complete &#039;teenage vacuum.&#039;</p><p>(...That phrase is referencing my current favorite thread here, &quot;Post an Ancient Coin and an Old Tune.&quot;&nbsp; Cf. The Who, &quot;Teenage Wasteland.&quot;&nbsp; ...Which I also like to paraphrase this way, going back to the days of three network tv channels, and (thank you, in my town) zero PBS:</p><p><br /></p><p>Don&#039;t cry,</p><p>Don&#039;t close your eyes;</p><p>It&#039;s only TV Wasteland.)</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry I&#039;m the last one to be of further advice, especially regarding the authenticity, but I&#039;m liking your notion that she could wear it as a pendant, instead of as a ring.&nbsp; ...Even in that capacity, [USER=75143]@hotwheelsearl[/USER]&#039;s point (while I was typing) is a serious caveat.&nbsp; Whether you&#039;re talking about ancient jewellery, or medieval coins, the mere fact that the thing is made of (predominantly base) metal is Exactly Zero guarantee of its continued structural viability.</p><p>...Meanwhile, thanks for that, [USER=108985]@cplradar[/USER].&nbsp; Had to remind me of the town I was living in, for a minute (c. 1980&#039;s), where there was an ice cream place, run by aging hippies, called, &#039;Ye Olde Lap-A-Dairy Shop.&#039;&nbsp; --No, I <i>really don&#039;t</i> think they did the &#039;Shoppe&#039; thing.&nbsp; To their ongoing credit.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
