HARRISBURG, Pa. - A retired jeweler sorting
through items donated to a Pennsylvania charity spotted one
fabulous find: a 2.6-carat diamond and platinum ring.
Officials from Goodwill Industries say the ring has been
appraised at $17,600, making it the most expensive item ever
donated to Goodwill Industries Keystone Area.
The ring was discovered last week by retired jeweler Barry
Landis, who has sorted through donated jewelry in Goodwill's
Harrisburg distribution center for the last two years. Most of it
is costume jewelry, but the donated diamond shone through.
The ring has a two-carat European-cut diamond, surrounded 14
smaller diamonds.
Goodwill officials aren't sure why the ring ended up being
donated. No one has come forward to take credit.
must have been one hell of a marriage...
