It is a sure-fire age tester, that's for sure. Anyone over 35 knows right away what it is. Most under 35 do not know, but some do...presumably from their parents having some laying around.
It was cast after a friend of mine asked her boss to make a couple of them to sell in his jewelry store of which she is the manager. She saw me coming, that's for sure. I came into the store right after they were completed, and one was in the case. She ran over, pulled it out, and said, "Do you know what this is?" I didn't miss a beat...
A few months later, my wife was in the store, and Cammie conned her into buying it for me. As of that day, I was still the only one who knew what it was.
