I inherited it from my grandmother and this is the only thing I have been able to find even close to the description of what I have. How can I get find more information

Ram's Head on SILVER by: Anonymous
A Ram's head (directly facing you as you look at the ram mark) appears on Bourges, France - SILVER ca. 1784 -1791.
You are welcome to submit a photo of the mark in a follow-up submission. Please type "Ram's Head On Bracelet | Follow Up" in the subject field.
Perhaps the bracelet was rhodium plated at a later date. Rhodium is a white metallic element that is of the platinum family . Because of its HARD REFLECTIVE FINISH it is often used as a plating for jewelry.
