Backyard payoff

Did a quick search at a house today that a friend of mine recently rented. House was built in 27' and I just knew that it would be loaded with "stuff". After a short time I only had two wheaties, a nickel, and one memorial. However, I did come across this great Navy Bracelet. .925 sterling!

Anyone have any ideas the to the age/era? Still common or not?

Yeah, I'd say a WWII era "sweetheart" locket bracelet.

They were very popular and were civilian made in a variety of designs and metals with all the military branches represented. Women on the homefront wore them with pictures of their servicemen husbands/boyfriends inside.

Really nice find. Smile
