Did you get that 22k ring valued? I reckon you can almost cross off number 1 on the list...... :)

Did you get the stone tested?

Nope never got it valued but when I went to fix the Silver ring the Jeweler looked at it but wouldn't tell me what stone it is.....His assistant which I think is his daughter said no no that is for Junior Jewel Maker he is Senior... LOLOL

I'm always hoping for stuff like that too, maybe one day. :)
Must be needs a bucket list then ,.... if you don't list it, might never happen ! :eek: ]:D

Bucket list gives something to aim for rather than just swinging and hoping for the best. :)

As soon as saw it I ran, was in the higher beach before the dunes :mad: :lol: :lol: It touched my coil so I dragged it through the sand to clean it :p
I know where not to detect :lol: :lol: :lol:
Ain't it a pain when you pick up the torn bits of packet and realise it's a condom wrapper ,..... and you hope so very much that it was clean hands rippin it open in that hurried frenzy. :N: :eek: .... :lol:

Is that a 'Proof' or just a G/Unc...shame about the marking tho.

nice example either way... ;)

edit:..Gem = ~$200-250

PROOF= ~ $20-30K :D

It's a (Did have a rust mark on front face) Cleaned it up because it wasn't pitted and there was no likelihood of it being damaged with a toothbrush, also not for sale coin so it's priceless.... :)
 
:D ...ahhh, a 'collector' after my own heart.... :p

Nice tone on it as well, not quite 'rosey'..but could look better in life i'm sure.

BTW...you sure it's not pitting on Georges head (ear/hairline junction)?...looks likely to be the first area i'd keep watch on myself... :8

Not quite pitting....that is where the rust mark took off the shine/luster of the coin....should be okay in the long run.... :)
 
If you continue to handle it, or just rub your thumb over it once in a while, the oils may be enough of a 'barrier' to put a stop to the oxidizing... ;)
