    Alex's nervous chuckle when Melissa was checking her diamond was everything!! 🤣😂

    When my mom was alive, and worked, she was a brooch woman. She had so many. I remember every morning my mom getting ready and pinning on a brooch. I have one of her christmas brooches. Maybe ill wear it this next christmas.

    Ales, every time you say Melissa is going to go through the jewelry you end up taking over.

      I actually thought the tag teamed really well.

      It’s his little-boy-on-a-treasure-hunt excitement🤣…which, after all, is what makes their channel so great. I actually love the dynamics between Alex and Melissa. It makes my heart happy, seeing a couple who works, plays, parents, *and* plans as a team. (The only exceptions over the years have maybe 3 or 4 times when Alex surprisingly got a bit grumpy-eyed or curt w/Melissa - probably just exhaustion on his part, and possibly no one but another woman might’ve even noticed, but hey, no one’s perfect. Even Alex). Anyway, I love it when he and Melissa “inventory” together.

    • @MelArchbold
      @MelArchbold Před 3 měsíci +20

      I don’t see it as Alexander taking over, he has the camera which in turn is all of you, so he just wants to make sure that everyone is part of the experience ❤ Thank you all for always looking out for both of us.

      I wanted to see each piece a little closer and to know what carat gold it was. Also, I like the costume jewelry as well. I'm really into jewelry. Loved this!

  • @OriginalNethead
    @OriginalNethead Před 3 měsíci +4

    Alex came up covered in gold again! 03:08 The stones in the earrings are possibly topaz or sapphire. Both are used as better diamond substitutes. I'm betting a lot of the diamond rings are post-WWII engagement rings. The poppy pins have me wanting them - here in the lower 48 we don't get any..darnitt! 11:42 When a bracelet has a safety chain, check for marks. I have no idea what he paid, but odds are those tangled chains will scrap out enough to cover both boxes and then some.

    • @andreabradley5837
      @andreabradley5837 Před 3 měsíci +1

      Yes, I noticed the safety chain on the bracelet too, was hoping they would test it.

  • @fallonbea
    @fallonbea Před 3 měsíci +4

    The pink stones in that bracelet could be alexandrite. She had a lot of pearl as well so alexandrite and pearl are june birthstones. This person could ve had a june birth date.

    Do you think you would get more from a jewelry store selling it for scrap gold than you would auctioning it off? The price they will give you for gold would surprise you, I think. The diamond rings you could put on consignment? This was the best jewelry haul you've ever done! Congratulations Melissa and Alex! Thank you.

    Nice find Sir, as usual curiosity Inc hits another vein of gold in a few random Jewelry boxes, I'm like Alex I will recognize good/quality stuff first and then I'll spot a few pieces of gold, bundle up what I already have and then say how much for everything!!! as they contemplate this, I will make them an offer they can't refuse...🤔and it's usually a very good price.
