I wouldn't touch them, if they have a value it is only historical and in silver weight.

Agree.
no easy task to repair ex-jewelry , and then not really desirable coins, even old and (otherwise) valuable pieces.

Unfortunately what's done is done. There are ladies out there that would probably pay 10x melt just for the fashion statement.

I estimate 400 grams or say 12 oz fine, spot price $26,jewelry store 50 less 50, junk value $78.
amazing piece of historic silver jewelry starting bid on (advertiser) $7800.
