Is your friend in the jewelry business? Did he test your diamonds with a diamond tester?

It's very rare to have that many real diamonds cast in a .925 silver piece of jewelry. They are usually CZ's (cubic zirconias) :icon_scratch:

Very nice find! I was laughing when you said in your original post that a piece of silver would pay for both your machines, but if the diamonds are real, it just may.

Congrats,

just to update everyone on the cross
it turns out to be what my jeweler friend calls "con jewelry"
it's not silver at all it was stamped so it could be sold as silver
the stones are a type of lead crystal that looks like real diamonds
with inclusions and all
still a good find as far as i am concerned
and it does make a nice avitar lol

When I look at the 925, it looks like it is NOT stamped into it, looks like a piece os metal laying on top of the other. Atleast that's what it looks like to me.
