In Hobbit it is said that Thanduril gave Necklace of Girion to armor his son(elven prince) in armor of pure silver, 3 times as srong as steel. Bilbo got an armor made for elven prince, made of Mithri that is harder then steel, and Mithril was often called "true silver", considering how many times Hobbit was rewritten i would not be surprised Tolkien mixed up the terms "pure silver" and "true silver" which would mean that Necklace of Girion was given for the Mithril armor that was supposed to go to Thanduril, but Smaug attacked before it could be delivered(or posibly evenfinished, as the only thing mentioned is the shirt) am i the only one that made this connection?
