Is it real or is it CZ?

[SeekerProB]

I am on vacation and didnt bring my detector, went for a walk and was looking at washouts below the cabins at a lake. Low and behold what did I find in the dirt! I will find out when I get back home whether or not it is real.

Good eye! That'd be cool if it was the real deal. Good luck and keep us posted.

Take a piece of white paper and make a small pencil dot on it. Place center of stone over the dot and examine it through a loupe. If the reflected dot pattern is symmetrical, then probably CZ; if irregular, then possibly a diamond.

Take a loupe and look for flaws.
If it has inclusions, it's probably real (see a jeweler).
If its flawless, it's probably CZ (see a jeweler anyway).
I hope it's real.

Stone doesn't appear to have a setting. If not, simple way to find out if real or not. Look through the pointed end. If stone still has glitter, then real. If cloudy or anything but clear, CZ.

Going home tomorrow but will have a hurricane to deal with before I find out if it is real or not lol.

It has a ring of dots around the cone end. Not sure if that is from when it was in a ring or not. I'm leaning to cz so when they tell me it's real I can faint.

Ya, but don't leave it with him. I found a very old ring with a 2 ct diamond in it and the wife went to a "friend" jeweler to see if it was real. They told her they were busy but to leave it and they would call. Well dontchknow they said it was a CZ but they didn't have CZ stones that far back. Well, it was a CZ stone when I got it back

I have looked at it through a 10x magnifying glass. Pretty sure it is cz but am going to use a diamond tester on it.

Yep, CZ. Thanks for all the input.
