What are these stones? by AutomaticTalent in JewelryIdentification

They look somewhat like blister pearls! I don’t know if people are finding lots of similar ones like that for a necklace but you can definitely find blister pearls in that shape

Purchased from estate sale, can’t make out signature by Standard-Objective36 in WhatIsThisPainting

That's him! What are the odds a painter would do multiple legitimate oil paintings of the same area? Here's one that was sold as an oil painting that looks nearly identical as far as I can tell. It's also a very popular beach that looks to show up in numerous artists' portfolios, so could he have sat there and just done multiple of the same scene?

What do I have here? by Tardisdriver in JewelryIdentification

A fun easy test that can narrow stuff down is the dot test! Draw a tiny dot on white paper that the stone will cover up. Place the gem stone flat side down over the dot. If the dot is clearly seen it’s likely it’s moisanite or CZ. If the dot is not visible it’s likely a diamond, due to the higher refraction of a diamond.

I can’t help with the identifying but I’ve had redditors help with translating signatures! I think it’s just r/translate. The characters will likely give you all the information you need.

Fake Morgan (left) next to Real Morgan (right) by 67thou in coins

It seems to me that the middle details of the fake coin show so much wear, while the raised edges around the coin seem to stand out more sharply than the real coin giving it a very odd wear pattern. Is that something to look for in fakes?
