Hello. My husband is a big collector of coins. We often go to estate sales. I picked up some pieces of jewelry here and there that have caught my eye. After some research I quickly found out that there are many kinds of turquoise depending on the mines that it came from (which I found fascinating). Anyways, I’d really like to learn more about the different types and how to tell the authenticity so that I can shop with a little more knowledge. Therefore, I’ve been reading and listening to podcasts and I’ve stumbled upon this site. I felt like this is a great way to learn more and get others’ opinions. Thank you for allowing me to join.
