Congratulations!!!👍
Was wondering how 9 jewelers could be so wrong. Make sure you never take anything to that appraiser again, that’s for sure…
Wow that's astonishing! Congratulations persisting!
And didn't you say in the cars the stone was tossed in for FREE :)
Wow awesome find man
He went to Jared. So many ladies just fainted.
So 7 jewelers thought it was real....go visit them again and see how many would buy the stone :-)
After the 3rd I would have just sold it it'd the price was right. No need to find out they're wrong
Yeah no shit
That’s a clit 💍
Why was this comment posted weeks or months ago you ask? Patreon gets early access to all my videos! Thanks to everyone for watching!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
@whosever fungus Ok!
I really do appreciate that your videos are always complete and not littered with sponsors or "find out next time".
And no clickbait.
I 100,000,000% LOVE how your always so positive. Thanks for being an inspiration to others!!
My man. You just made me get a raw emerald tested... Thank you... It made me $480 and a walking liberty!
Great Video Shane!! I love your yard sale adventures! Learning a lot from ya!
What I really like about your videos is you did your do diligence to find out what your gems ans minerals really Are! I appreciate you being honest with your audience and not just make a clickbate video! Thank you!
Dishonesty and click bait might make more views and subscribers but I don’t care about that. I just like making videos. Thanks for watching
That was excellent! The journey was lots of fun and it’s still pretty!
dude im so happy you found that i was getting so excited for you bro awesome content every time
Klesh! Love these yard sale vids. Especially since the yard sales are local!
I just love watching your adventures
Really enjoyed that! Hope to see more yard sale adventures.
Great video. I really enjoyed your research process. Thanks for sharing. Would love to see more of these garage sale videos.
Awesome finds Shane. Thanks for video.
I am proud to be your friend. Honesty will always be the best policy. ATWA!!
Awesome day of finds! I would hold onto that gem just in case. It looks awesome!!
Awsome finds Shane. Always enjoying your work. Hope to see you soon for coin roll hunts
You should try sell it to one of those jewlers for a good price :D
A jeweler won't (if he knows what he's doing) give you a very good price. Why should he? As a goldsmith/gemologist/jeweler myself, I can buy any stone I need for a wholesale price. Your average jeweler, sells for three to five times the wholesale cost, and have the piece within two to three days. Why then should the jeweler put money in something he doesn't have a buyer for, unless he can get it for a steal?
Thanks for teaching me about the process of identifying stones
What an awesome video! Definitely thinking about doing some treasure hunting now! It would be cool to make a video with some general tips on garage sale hunting! Thanks!
Beautiful! I would still put it in your collection because it has a good story behind it
A nice video Shane. Good analysis of gold and silver. This topic was very interesting.
Greetings Peter
Dude, great video. Love the channel.
Wow man seeing Reed and Barton is crazy! That company started in my hometown in MA. Cool to see people with their silver products.
Haha. What a rush! I was like... the expert was going to say Yes.. but it all came crashing down. What a roller coaster ride. Still nice scores on all the other stuff. This was a fun video to watch. Thanks for posting Shane. Have a great weekend. BTW.. saw a comment below about flowers. Hmmm must be nice to live in legal Colorado.
That appraiser was such a nerd and I loved it. He seemed genuinely excited explaining light refraction through materials. If you do what you love you'll never work a day in your life.
Good point!
yet he was wrong...was he trying to get the stone...
Nice hunt, it's always exciting to hunt for stuff at yard sales, on mans junk is another man's treasure!
What a crazy journey!! So enjoy your channel since discovering you from Dan Hurd & Pioneer Pauly. Much love & gratitude from Maine!
Hello from Malaysia !!!! Always love your videos !
Still a good haul shane!! We look forward to the next!
Wow you got bilbo to appraise your gemstone. That’s pretty cool!
I plan to hit up a few estate sales and garage sales tomorrow myself. Ya never know!
"I think its glass" that was all he needed to say he wasnt 100% sure of anything good on ya for going to a second appraiser and congrats on an amazing find.
Great video. My sister has been yard sale shopping for years. She always makes money.
People just don't know what they have.
Dude that's crazy! Jewelers were ready to pay you for that piece of glass. Just shows you how tricky gemstones are.
Wow! That's great..so happy for your finds..
So interesting and informative.. thankyou so much for sharing
Maybe I'm wrong but so many didn't read the 2nd appraisal and that it is REAL!
What an amazing find but you worked and kept trying rather than giving up. That's
the Shane Klesh I have come to know thru all your videos. 💙💛🌎☮🤗💓
Good score Shane, best I have done was a custom gold ring with 3 emeralds from a pawnshop for $45, it appraised at $580. The guy at the pawnshop thought it was fake because of the flaws in the emeralds. Should have seen his face when I told him that was how I knew it was real....after I bought it of course. Got to get back into trolling the second hand stores and pawnshops it can be fun and it is mindful activity too. ;)
Nice finds Shane! I bought a 2 carat diamond necklace set in platinum for 2 bucks this summer, as well as 5 sterling necklaces for 5 bones!
You have the skills!
I made a Great Score @ an estate sale last year. Went on the first day and saw they had a collection of US constitutional silver coins, Junk Silver.
They were high the first day, but i went back right before they closed up on the final day and made them an offer for what they had left. With some negotiations I was able to get 8 pounds of pre-64 US mint halves, quarters, and dimes for...........Wait for it !..........$300 cash. Worth well over $3,000 now. But a few months later my wife out did me BIG TIME. She scored 9 oz of 14K gold casting grains at an estate sale, the women who passed was a jewelry designer and maker, she cast her own bracelets, settings, and bezels. The people who were running the sale had no idea what "Casting Grains" were and they asked my wife if she thought $25 was fair for the two bags, one was an oz the other had 8 oz in it. Over eight thousand dollars in 14 K Gold
You're right! $8972 right now.
You must have traveled to middle earth for the last appraisal, that gentleman looks identical to Bilbo Baggins.
That was a great vid , I’m fired up now to go looking around the yard sales tomorrow , keep up the fine work , peace ✌️ 💀🌴
This video was fun to watch. I forgot how much you could find at a yard sale let alone what you can find 😆
This was a really interesting video! Thank you.
Ok...."Ninety Second Airborne Man", We got your back on this one...Perfect example of my beautiful uncle with all of this knowledge, who passed last Halloween.... Rest his "un-rested soul", however still posesses our gems and meteorites.....didn't know "Squat" about what he was talking about.....so it goes without speaking any farther....."Much Respect Klesh"!....We all are "ever so close"......The Foothills Gang. Oh yea! and "Have a Beautiful Day!
Thanks!
That is absolutely insane. Literally a dream find. I will spend my whole career of treasure hunting trying to find something of this caliber.
Hello Shane. Great find
amazing find!!!! Great video!
Sick! One of my favorites! I like the info too!
Just goes to show that it pays to get a professional appraisal done..
Thanks for sharing this Shane..
Cheers Famo59 👍🤓🍺⛏
I like the new music. Love the hunting for treasure videos !
I thought it had to be a real stone~I am so glad for You. It is such a unique stone. Your little gift from God. So Cool.
You guys are so cool for truth seeking. I believe I had a white gold aquamarine I wore for years and when I had to haul it jeweler said it was a silver ring and no more. It still hurts today.
Man I've got to do this, Zoe would love it.
Yea for sure! I've been getting really lucky doing these yard sales here in Colorado. Lots of gold, silver and other items to be re-sold, plus it's just another thing to stay focused on while treasure hunting!
Hi Shane, Nice video. Classic truck rescue uses some of the same music. Nice and mellow! Cool. GL buddy! JJ
Thanks 👍
Nice thorough testing you had done!
So close to a big win... keep on hunting!
Cheers for another great video mate 😎🍻
The Swedish medal is pretty cool! I know some of the older medals can sell for quite a bit too.
Precious metals are weighed in Troy ounces. The 90.67 grams is 2.91511 troy ounces
👍
I also purchased some aquamarine from an auction site online because this video made me LOVE this gem so much haha mine is a 4.95 carat stone so not nearly as massive as yours but it too is emerald cut and flawless just gorgeous 😍 ❤
That is awesome!
Great video brother keep hunting you'll find that stone your looking for.
Pretty cool Shane.
That aqua is really well cut. I don't think anyone would have spent the kind of time necessary to do that for cz or glass.
It really isn't. The whole time I was thinking if that's aqua it's cut very poorly.
Quite surprised how people don't test all the jewellery before putting it up for sale in a yard sale, I'd get every bit tested before I sell it. 😂🤣
Ahh man! You missed the chance for “let’s take a look at it in the pan” when you threw everything on the table! Thank you for the video sir!
Would it be worth it to get a second appraisal? Its insane 7 Jewelers would say that its real!
That's what I was thinking too
9 not 7... 9!!!
8am q
There is a good size neighborhood in the springs that shuts down the roads and you have to walk through the neighborhood. It's pretty cool.
Oh it's a yard sale neighborhood.
Sweet finds man! That guy at the end tho... Cheers, Heidi and Conan Gold Prospecting
Exciting video! Excellent return on your $28.
The item marked Reed and Barton is a Christmas ornament, it's hollow and was made in different shapes for a number of years.
Geebus, good job hun!
Wow man that was sweet find.......
After so many saying they thought it to be real...I couldnt settle on one test-person...I'd have 1 or two others test also...not knowing of first ! Kinda makes you think they dont all exactly know for sure what theyre doing themselves all the time ...fun video !
It's totally possible! Thanks for watching
When you went to the actual apprasial certified gemologist, I was totally geeking out!
Nice score!
What a wild ride
Thanks for the shout out on the music man! 🤘🏼
Man I wish I saw this a year ago. I love that moon and star ring and mine that I wore for 10 years got lost in the sink of a bar and I’ve been searching for one since.
The way that guy on the pine said alright
Yeah, with the silver metal coin necklace, I found one of my better finds a similar way, the chain was corroded and cheap fake japan but the pendant on it ended up being 14kt white gold with an actual diamond on it....I buy so many things whether they look real or not simply because the small price for the gamble. That same day of tag saling I bought some tie tack and bars and one was 14kt white gold with real pearls and sapphires....also that day spent $10 buying a whole box of jewelry and it had a 10kt chain, diamond engagement ring without center stone, an attocha shipwreck coin and more......As for the large gemstone you found it's really hard to tell if those are real or not. I will always buy them because. Though I know china produces a ton of fakes back many years ago those type of stones were cut and people would bring them back from when overseas or during war. I've found both real and fake ones but $3k-$5k though they may think that is the value street value no matter what is like 1/10th of that in my experience I've had a stone appraise around $2000 but had trouble even finding $100 for it. Just keep your eyes peeled for gemstones though cause you could get a huge score one day from something people think is fake (I know a guy that inherited a kashmir sapphire and it sold for over 100k
Awesome finds.
Thanks 👍
The suspense till the end!!!
I landed a huge uncut Emerald.. good luck🍀
Still cool finds! 👊
Love the opening music!
Lucky you went to the yard sales
Awesome video dude. Ive found some cool stuff at garage sales. On a side note, has anyone been to that diamond mine state park? Im thinking about taking a trip. Might be something cool for you to do a video on. Unless ive somehow missed it.
I'm very surprised and a little disturbed that 9 different Jewelers said it... 9!!!
That is why I try learning gem testing methods myself. I have a double refraction tester but besides being able to tell glass from synthetic/real gemstones I'm still a bit clueless. I've been buying rubies that appear real since I was a small child but still cant tell synthetic from natural stones even with equipment
@@neggispringfeild well apparently in this case being able to tell what is glass would have made you superior to 9 different Jewelers! That still blows my mind!
I have what looks like a huge bright red ruby set into a what looks like a gold cufflink but can't travel far enough to get it tested. It's very old and doesn't look like glass or synthetic material. I might make a video showing it to see if anyone will have any ideas.
Yew a winner again mate very cool 😎 indeed
Going off like a frog in a sock lol
Crouch
I AM SO JEALOUS RIGHT NOW!!! 😍 LOL!! I LOVE HITTING UP YARD SALES MY BEST FIND WAS A 10K GOLD RING WITH A SMALL DIAMOND FOR $0.50!!
A good choice for checking for gems as well is the school of mines or the GIA institute.
It’s funny and ironic that you got the aquamarine gem added in for free 😆
Goodwill can also be a gold and silver goldmine, I bought one jewelry lot for around $10-$20 and inside was a diamons and saphire pearl necklace I almost sold for $2000 before it broke pre shipping, in that same lot was 4 other necklaces worth around another thousand dollars......another time I got a lot and everything totaled around $6000 and another time they had wrapped in celophane a set of forks, knives, spoons, etc I got it on it's sale day for just $5 I scrapped most of it for nearly $1000 and it's sale value online was almost 8x that.... goodwill is good for bulk finds and tagsales good for finding hundreds of dollars in value for under a dollar lol
Yep! I've found my share of treasure at Thrift stores as well as seen in some previous videos. Thanks for the comment!
Can't you weigh it then use the Archimedes water diffusion to determine it's mass then consult some chart?
Way to persevere. First, excitement; then disappointment; then finally true excitement :)
Nice score bro!
