The only thing better than precious metal is when it comes coupled with gemstones! Great find!

Default Great Looking Find!

You might want to put a diamond tester on it though. It lacks the brilliance of a diamond and may be a CZ. It is difficult to tell from the pic even when expanded. I sure hope I'm wrong about it being a CZ.

Good Luck,

BDA
