I have come across a bunch of what look to be hand poured buttons from an estate sale in a bunch of old jewelry, the estate owner was supposed to be an old school jeweler....I have an acid test kit, the buttons hold t 10k but not t 14k, but they are a hard metal??? as in I broke a small pair of snips checking the hardness!! LOL..They are however quite heavy for their size. Any clues or does anyone have a better method that tthe acid test?? I dont have my scale to weigh them but I would guess around 3 or so ounces of the buttons is what I have, maybe more. ANy help would be great!
