Mostly just an off topic side note, but antique jewelry was sometimes altered into a different item. Changing grandpa's medal into a stick pin or grandma's brooch into a necklace pendent or pin into a ring. That's why the jeweler said to look at the back to see if an item has been altered. Many of these changes were done years ago and not for resale or nefarious purposes. Some woman liked the pendent, but preferred to wear it as a stick pin. Making coins into pins or pendents was common, while wearing rings on necklace chains is still done today.
