Silver with Ice! Dark Ice! ***New Photo Added***

***UPDATE*** Got the ring back today from the jeweler. Looks all pretty now. I have one HAPPY wife tonight! :)
----------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------- ---------------------- ----------------------------------------- ----------------------------------
Hit a new beach today on my lunch break. Searched for about two hours and found only about 40 cents and a lot of aluminum can parts & pull tabs. I was about to turn around and head to the car, but something told me to go for 10 more minutes. I'm glad I stayed...The very next signal, I dug two scoops of wet sand and out popped a nice .925 silver ring with 10 black stones. It wasn't until I got home and put the diamond tester to work that I found out they were real black diamonds! HECK YEAH!!! Love seeing those rings in the scoop!

Happy Hunting!

-Nate

Wow true Cabandos, don't see many of them!
The closest that I got to finding one was a lump of coal in a sock at Christmas time along with a switching for being naughthy instead of nice.

Nice find! Black diamonds are in style today, Macy's sells a lot of sets like that. Check the area again, it may be part of a set.
