Hi There Dan - just a suggestion to you when you handled jewelry, or silver in general - one of the reasons that jewelry was made from silver, was to warn the wearer when their body was out of balance and in need of cleaning - if my body is out of balance I turn any silver jewelry black - so head for a water fast - maybe this could be one of the explanations - have you given this any thought !!!!
Cheers -  Regards
