Antique 2 sided Pendant

Category
Jewelry and Gemstones
Condition
Good
Description

This pendant is 2.75" x 1.75" it is two sided.  On one side is a portrait of a woman sitting, she is wearing a puufy sleeved black dress and a very ornate lace 'bonnet' and neck covering.  She is holding a book.  The artwork when looked at under magnification is amazing in detail.  On the other side of the pendant it is predominently gold with a large oval stone in the center.  Silver rope details accent the perimeter of the pendant as well as around the stone. 

 

I believe that this pendant would have been worn by a man with the portrait facing his heart.  This is a very old piece that has been passed down from generation to generation.  I would love to know the age of the piece and any and all information you can provide me with... I have done extensive research and cannot find anything remotely similar, so I have no idea of the value either...

1960s AMP Chevrolet model truck 3 in 1 kit

Category
Antique Toys
Condition
Mint
Description

I am looking for a price on this 1960s AMP 3 in 1, 1/25 scale model customizing pick up truck with trailer and engine. You can either make it custom or stock. The box is in wonderful shape corners are in great condition box has no issues. The plastic model inside is brand new in bag all plastic pieces are still attached. Includes the original stickers for the model truck. This is a 1960s Chevrolet model number 7960. I have searched all over to find some sort of information about this and have had no luck. I have been able to find a empty box on ebay for about $ 70 and a built truck but nothing about the whole kit brand new. Found a box and built truck taken apart for around $150, but nothing anywhere else. Any information would be great.
