I don't have my books with me right now, but isn't there supposed to
be a snake on the locket (at least the one that Voldemort allegedly
made into a Horcrux?  I can't remember, but was the locket that
wouldn't open (in OOTP) described as having a snake on it?  That seems
to be a defining point, and I can't see it being left out of the
description... I still think that it is pretty coincidental that this
was there, so I'm leaning towards it being the locket in question...
