Hi John,

The best way to know what kind of pearl you have is to remember what type of mollusk you were eating for dinner. Was it a Little Neck or Cherrystone clam? Then you have a quahog pearl. Was it an oyster? They you have an edible oyster pearl. Quahog pearl have value depending upon several factors. Edible oyster pearls as a general rule are keepsake items and have little value.

Congrats on finding a pearl! Glad you appreciate it and will enjoy it.

God bless, Kari
