I finally got a camera to start posting my finds (hope they post correctly). My First real diamond ring! I'll be selling it on sunday for 500$ ;D Had a local jeweler appraise it today, 1200 to 1400$ total. Said the setting was about 400$, the sapphire has some small chips on the edges. Found it in the wet sand about 8 inch's down. when I saw the stones and the 14k I did the happy dance on my knees!

P.S been lurking for over a year wanted to thank all of you for sharing all the info that has helped me with the hobby in which I am addicted! :icon_pirat:

Very nice find Surfnturf

I think that if I managed to find anything like that up here in Canada, I'd be sure that the wife would take it long before I had a chance to sell it!

WTG! :icon_thumright:

that is a beauty. sure looks like sapphire in the pic which would account for the high appraisal. amethyst isn't worth as much typically. congrats on the nice find and having a buyer for it!
