    One of the other Bead items I found in a grab bag of jewelry I picked up. An Egyptian Steatite scarab beetle bead seal. I come across reproductions of these every now and then. This one actually looks like it has some age to it. It has hieroglyphics on the underside. Still retains some details. Measures about 1 1/4” in length and weighs 12.4g. What do you think?

      I don't know krysciobrad, there's a lot of these around, I have one in my hand right now, about 2 1/2 times the size of yours, 3 1/4" long with hieroglyphics on the bottom and top, carved the same! Thanks for showing, Bill :^)
