Bought a gold testing kit and a diamond tester and now I know that this beautiful ring is fake a.f. ...(FAF).....but the tiny silver turtle is real. The other way around would be better but I do like turtles ! The fakeness of the ring is insidious, though. There are three hallmarks...that cannot be made out without a loupe....which I also bought. With the loupe I can see that they are not even marks...they are just made to appear like something that might be a mark, if you could see it in a different light. It did avoid me having to hunt down the previous owner of the ring....begrudgingly...because if it were real it would have been a huge loss for someone. I like to think I would have done the "right thing"...but.....never know for sure. Added another 1.89 to my change jar...so getting close to 50 bucks in there for the last couple of months. My goal for the year.....200.00 in change....WOW....that's the first MDing goal I've ever set ! Feels good.
