Tuesday's Hunt, 18.1 Grams, 13 Diamond's?

Went for a hunt after work and got a screaming 12-46 on my Etrac about 7 inches deep...... that's usually a very good sign, and today it was no different. I dug what I think is nothing but 18.1 grams of the good stuff (.925) along with 10 Emerald Cut Diamonds and 3 rounds Diamonds (one is missing from the set or 4). I won't know for sure until I have it checked out tomorrow and please tell me what you think as well.


I also dug up a Religious Pendant I think ??? ;D Please, if you know anything about those, please let me know what you think this is, it rang up 12-41 on my machine... ;)

Usually they do not put real diamonds in 925 - BUT - I have found 3 silver rings that did - so its worth having them checked
