Description
A lustrous, gemmy, 0.74 carat, transparent, rounded and mostly clean, white diamond from Crater of Diamonds State Park, Arkansas. The crystal was found by Billy Moore in March, 2009 and comes with a Park card. A very nice-sized, displayable specimen. Stones of this size, validated and actually not too ugly, are rare. This park sits on a small and ancient diamond-bearing tube, but the diamonds themselves, mined now for a long time and petering out on top, are hard to find amidst the tonnage.
