The Rhodolite Garnet
One discovery the brothers made is a stone about 400 to 500 years old. The rhodolite garnet features a raspberry color, and some say it confirms the connection to Marie Antoinette. Rick Lagina claimed that they deserved a pat on the back because they found treasure.
Theories of Origin
However, the rhodolite garnet could have come from various places. The Marie Antoinette connection is just one of the theories surrounding the origin of the stone. From the design, some feel it’s linked to the Masonic Royal Arch and High Priest.
