We have here some photos sent to us by one of our fellow treasure hunter which are images of raw or unprocessed gemstones.
However, he did not give us any details about where and how he found them. So the question here is, “What exactly are these objects and how much are they worth today?”
In this photo, we can see two stones which seem like ordinary stones only. But their difference will appear when they are exposed to a light source.
As we can see in this photo. He took the smaller stone and exposed it under a light source. And we can see that it emitted a very beautiful yellow color.
This is the second stone in which we can see, it seems to have a red color.
In relation to the Yamashita treasures, you have to know that the Japanese Imperial Army did not just confiscate gold items.
They actually confiscated all items that they deem valuable into their eyes. Thus, any glittering objects such as gemstones were looted by them.
When it comes to the value of gemstones, their price depends more on their type and rarity.
So if these two stones found by our fellow treasure hunter are the rare kinds of gemstones then they surely have a very high price.
Aside from the rarity of the gemstones as a basis for pricing, another important criteria are their cuttings and polished form.
Thus, gemstones that are already processed are valued at a much higher price as compared to those that are not.
If this stone with the yellow color is proven to be a “yellow sapphire” then it surely has a very high amount of value.
As for this stone with red color, if it can be proven to be a “ruby” or “red diamond” then it will surely have an extremely high price.
Therefore
These two strange stones discovered by our fellow treasure hunter are possibly gemstones that possess huge amount of price.
For those who do not know, analyzing a gemstone to derive its appropriate price does need an actual examination of the object. In short, it can never be done through photos alone.
So the best method to have an estimated price for a certain gemstone is to bring them to the experts in the field of gemology.
Through them, you will surely gain more details about your gemstones and the amount of expected price when you intend to sell them.
