I had purchased these online on a estate sale , but I am contacting someone in Hope's of finding if any or all are real , most are marked Italy, some just are so very light , but I had a friend that said do not throw them away , I thought they were fake but idk, and one I ran across says earth from the catacombs, an has dirt in it , I looked for novelty stuff but I wasn't able to find the pendant I had , they showed crucifixes from catacombs but the pendant I have seems idk aluminum, non magnetic and that's why my friend said may have the metal tested ? I'm not sure but if u can give me any information that may help , I'd so greatly appreciate it, I was goin to sell some but I held off until I find out more.
I purchased on ebay , but I like to bid on actual auctions not the buy it now stuff, but I myself like all religious pendants an crucifixes.
