take it to the police.....and if they dont find someone who owns it, give it to a girl?

i'd either take it to the police or take it to a jeweler. a lot of times people have their diamonds registered and it can get back to it's rightful owner. don't be a dick and sell it.

do this for sure, just do not give it to the police to hold onto, it is your legal right to hold onto it and that way you know you can keep it after 40 days.

either that or get ingaged to some random babe

the morally right thing to do would be call the po and maybe a radio station like someone else suggested and wait for someone to describe it (chances are if someone had an engagement ring they know exactly what the fuck it looks like ) and if no one does, sell it and make bank

or you could be a dick like most people probably would and just sell it right away

take it to a reputable jeweler. he can tell you if its real and may be able to identify where the stone was cut, set, or sold. many diamonds have serial numbers laser etched into them and they are registered by this number. could help you find the owner
