Huge Diamond Donated to Goodwill

A 2.6-carat diamond ring was mysteriously donated to a Goodwill thrift store in Pennsylvania. Talk about a diamond in the rough

Diamond Jewelry sorter, Barry Landis, quite literally found a diamond in the rough when he discovered a 2.6-carat diamond ring among the piles of costume jewelry given to a Pennsylvania Goodwill store. The retired jeweler said he trembled while holding the tarnished stone, realizing he had more than just a
rhinestone bauble on his hands.

This was one of the diamond rings which appraised at a whopping $17,600, including a 2-carat European diamond surrounded by 14 smaller diamonds in a platinum setting. No one has called in yet to claim the ring - the most valuable Goodwill donation on record for the Pennsylvania area.

"It could have ended up with a price tag of $5.99," Jennifer Ross, spokeswoman for Goodwill Industries Keystone Area told The Patriot News. Go for wide range of wedding bands at RoyalDesignOnline.com
