    It has niello engravings. A large mosque on the front and on the back
    I have a question about this one. And on the back Arch Ctesiphon.
    Measures are 7.5 x 9.5cm and weight is 126 grams.
    I have a question, the system that locks and opens it is missing. And I brought it to the local jeweller, He will get back to me for the replacement costs. I know it might be valuable, but no idea how much. How much is it worth repaired and as it is now, Is it worth the investment is what I want to know. I have no money, only things I like ;)
    And anyone who knows arabic? and can read the signature?

    Thanks

      It depends on how much replacement costs will be. As long as its under like 75 bucks, I'd get it done if it were me. Is that a $2 price tag? Nice! I bought a necklace with over 800 bucks in gold once, and I kept the 50 cent price tag on it just because, lol!

      126 grams is pretty heavy, some nice weight there, I bet it would do nicely on the 'bay

      lol cool story, thats cool haha, I also keep receits, I have bought some stuff people wont believe. Have you put you necklace online?
      This one cost me one euro, together with other silver arabic and south Amnrican items. They belonged to a Dutch consul. These were gifts to the Dutch consul. From who this was inherited. The other thing I posdted earlier, just finisjed polishing. No doubt this is gold looks truly amazing. make a new pic in daylight tomorrow. And show it at the university museum.
      Thanks Bellin :) !
