Subject:Any help or info on an antique Asian necklace appreciated
Posted By: Tyler Sat, Sep 08, 2012 IP: 202.156.76.42 I came across this necklace in Singapore but have no idea if it is of any value or how to do any research on it. The necklace itself is quite long (maybe 3 feet total length) and has a large "coin" at the end. Any help in identifying this or where I could do some research would be appreciated. Thanks!

Posted By: Bill H Mon, Sep 10, 2012 For what it's worth, the pendant coin bears the reign mark of Thieu Tri, third emperor of the Nguyen dynasty, who ruled Vietnam from February 1841 until he died in November 1847. I've included a link to his wikipedia page below.
