Now that’s a happy hour surprise.
A customer at Palm Valley Outdoors Bar & Grill in Ponte Vedra Beach got more than just fresh seafood during a recent meal—finding two pearls in a single order of oysters.
The restaurant shared the unexpected jackpot moment on Facebook, posting a close-up of the twin pearls in the lucky diner’s hand. Another photo showed him grinning alongside two friends, with the memorable oyster tray in the background.
A Rare Find
The odds of finding a pearl in an oyster are estimated at 1 in 10,000. Finding two in one order? Even rarer.
“Our guests found two pearls while enjoying their 99-cent oysters and happy hour,” the restaurant wrote. “Stop in and see if you find more!”
How Much Are They Worth?
While pearl values vary based on size, shape, and luster, they typically range from $300 to $1,500, according to The Pearl Source.
One thing’s for sure—this diner won’t forget this meal anytime soon.
