Question My mother recently passed and had an extensive jewelry collection. Some I know is real- some I cant tell. She has one earring that looks like a diamond- it is set in a 14 k gold secure setting- it has the letters DQZN INSCRIPTED IN THE GOLD CLOSE TO THE 14K INSCRIPTION- DOES THIS MEAN ANYTHING
AnswerNot really. At this point: Have her jewelry appraised by an independent appraiser not only for value but mostly for Identification to be sure.
