Picked up this set of knives from a thrift store that reads “Mexican Silver 67” on the blade. Spent hours googling and cannot find any reliable info about it anywhere.

JEWELRY & WATCHES Help Identifying metal

Hi everyone! I purchased this bracelet from a jeweler years ago, and I was told it was solid gold. I’ve worn it almost constantly since then and it has never tarnished or changed color. It also feels fairly heavy, so I always assumed it was 18K gold.
However, I recently acid-tested it, and the test came back as not gold at all. 😳
I’m hoping someone here can help me figure out what the bracelet might actually be made of. I’ve included photos of the markings on the clasp. Could these markings give any clue about the metal or manufacturer?
I’d really appreciate any insight

Hi, might be silver, but I’m not sure and I’m struggling to identify these hallmarks. There might be an 800 to the south east of the crown? Any help would be massively appreciated!

DECOR Any id on this makers mark? No doubt EPNS. My research suggests Art Nouveau / Jugendstil (circa 1900–1910) with the chained Griffins and flowing haired maidens. Came up well after a good polish (see last few photos). And yes there’s a difference between tarnish and patina.

I am trying to identify this art nouveau pendant for my work. It's in 9 karat gold, the use of "9C" indicates British make but the only other marks are what looks like an H, some kind of symbol, and an N. It's not like other British gold pieces I've seen with hallmarks. Any help identifying would be appreciated!

Weighs 43 grams, no other mark located. I know 13 can indicate German 13 loth 81.25% silver but i’m not sure as i’m still a beginner and this would be my first silver find! Please give me some good news lol

I bought this ring today, looks like the hallmark is a Sheffield rose, a crown, 375 and Q which from my limited knowledge and research suggests 1990s(?), could anyone confirm? Any additional info re a potential deciphering of the makers mark would be much appreciated ! Thanks in advance.

OTHER Hey guys, my nan left me this walking stick and I'm wondering what the hallmarks are and also what it's made of. I think it's probably bone, but not sure.

The actual stick looks like it's made from bamboo and the head of the walking stick comes off and reveals a hidden small blade.
