US diners find rare purple pearl in plate of clams
By JERUSALEM POST STAFF
A couple in Florida enjoying a plate of steamed clams made an unusual discovery: A rare purple pearl.
George and Leslie Brock stopped into Dave's Last Resort & Raw Bar on Friday during a day at the beach. George Brock was about halfway through a dozen clams when he chomped down on something hard - a rare iridescent purple pearl.
At least one expert said the find could be worth thousands of dollars (euros).
"Few are round and few are a lovely color, so this is rare," Vermont gemologist Antoinette Matlins told The Palm Beach Post for its Monday edition. "I think they have found something precious and lovely and valuable."
