Hi Goo;

    You'll get a lot of answers on this, but I'd be careful if I were
    you. There are lots of goldsmiths out there, but not as many that
    know much about the trade, if you know what I mean. How about a
    symbol that's likely to represent our trade for a long time to come,
    like, say, a crossed jeweler's saw and chasing hammer? I thought
    about this a while, and I think those tools will be easily
    recognizable and will continue to be in use when you're looking at
    goldsmiths a quarter of your age ;-) 

    Of course, by that time, most jewelry will be made without a human
    hand ever touching it until the customer takes it out of the little
    box beside their home terminal, where it was transported to from the
    site on Mars where it was manufactured by nano-technology.
