<p>[QUOTE="'Nuff_Said, post: 13746, member: 181"]We took the gold and diamond ring that was purchased yesterday for $1 to the jeweler and had them clean and evaluate it. To our surprise, the jeweler said the stone is of a very high quality <u>old mine cut diamond</u>, but mounted in a later modern gold mount. It's probably around 100 years old or more and would recommend a GIA certification for better results. The gold's value was only around $40, but the value is all in the stone.</p><p><br /></p><p>We've never found or owned this type of stone before so the news was quite surprising to say the least.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
