MGRShop Pendants Magical Talisman Amulet Good Luck Talisman

When looking at the picture of Talisman, you get the idea that it is bright and shiny like real gold,but it really is very dull. I would like to take it somewhere and have it dipped. The black cord does not have any clasp. Was somewhat disappointed for price,but did not want to pay postage to return so just kept it.
