    My First Diamond Ring!!!

    Found my first ring yesterday! it was in the "grandma" zone at low tide, dug at about 8"

    it has a 925 sterling silver stamp on the band, not sure if the diamond is real or not but will have it appraised. my thoughts are that its real only because the setting is heavy duty and would they put a CZ in a high grade band with that heavy of setting? anyway, I LOVE IT!

    i would love to hear what you think.

    Screaming find! And about the stone, found a silver with stones once that turned out to be real, but it's rather rare. According to the jeweler at the time, "there are people who have skin reactions to gold so it's not impossible that the stones were set in silver for that reason." Hope your's proves to be the real deal. Either way, it's a very nice looking ring!

    I'll bet it will be a nice looking ring all polished up. chances are it will not be a real diamond but a nice find anyway!

    If you think you'll be running into those more often, I was looking online and you can get a diamond tester for 15-20 bucks. Hope it turns out to be real!

    Congrats! A beauty of a ring.

    Here's wishing it's real!

    My own experience...silver ring has always been a phony diamond...had them checked with a buddy's diamond tester.

    Still exciting to find.

    I don't mean to be the bearer of bad news but folks don't put a 1+ ct diamond in $3 worth of silver. It's a cool ring for sure, but not a diamond.

    generaly speeking, they don't put diamonds in silver rings.But its still a nice find.After I found a few rings like that I bought a tester,it also tests all types of stones,and is a nice tool to have. Good luck hunting.
