Spring Break Sparkler!!!!! - UPDATE & VALUE

[Magnum (using a) PI]

Sorry, I totally forgot to post the update to my post - http://www.treasurenet.com/forums/today-s-finds/496446-spring-break-sparkler.html

The valuation took some time as we continued our trip before heading out of London, where I found a jeweler in Hatton Garden who appraised it for me!

The value is in British pounds but at an exchange rate of about x1.5 I could not be happier! And its GENUINE! yay!

That ring is worth a nice piece of change.

Thanks Bill !

5,700 quid is one heck of a find, then to have it authenticated at ASJ. You should not have any trouble moving it if you want to.

Congrats.

I think it'll be up for sale before the wife becomes too attached!!!

What's a quid ? I always wondered about that and what's a wanker ?

 

[DownNDirty]

A quid is a pound. And a wanker? Well let's just say it's the British version of calling someone in America a Richard.

My girl would have seen that from across a football field and before I was done trying to figure out if it was real...

She would already have it professionally cleaned and be wearing it as I was still dusting my knees off.

Great score. Well done.

"Quids In" as I think the Brits say!

 

[BagLady]

That's amazing!! Good for you! I hope you get several buyers into a bidding war.

[Tommy G]

That's one fine ring! Like you, my wife would have quickly taken possession of that one - and that would be the end of it. Thanks for sharing.

18K Cartier ring?! That's the jewelry find of a lifetime - I nominate this for a banner find

 

[against the wind]

That's a score, and a great appraisal.
That probably translates into a new top of the line detector and a really pretty set of earrings. lol
Congrats

 

[Msbeepbeep]

Wow! That is quite a score!
