Get these stained/tarnished golds in the springtime after the big winter storms....these black golds have been down awhile, and this one was down 10 inches, and that's after a foot of sand was moved this winter. Probably been down there since the 80s....nice diamonds that test out....18 in all, and she polished right up !!

Got a second black gold this season yesterday....an old "love story" gold ring with ruby...again I thought fake, but as I wore it on my pinky tip the black patina started to rub off. She polished up at home, and had definitely been down a long time...tested the ruby with a UV light, and it lit up like it should. Apparently the "love story" brand was popular in the 60s 70s....it's a very dainty small gold, but every gram counts, and the black golds are rare for me....I try to take pics of the patina because once you polish it's gone
