Answer 1

take it to your local jewelry store ,,see if he can look at it or suggest where you can take it.....marcasite is coming back in popularity over the past few years. back when marcasite was first discovered it was considered the "poor man's diamond" because it has the sparkle that can seem like a diamond but of course its not....its very affordable but yours could be worth alot so i'd see a jeweler for starters and get suggestions on where you can take it but do not leave it with the jewelers....

Answer 2

"Antique road show" is a good way to get your antiques valuated.
It is reliable and you might have easy access to sell too.
