How can you tell if an emerald is treated?

Joshua,

When you do clean out the emerald, is there ever trace residue of the filling left?

It depends how much treatment there was but typically no. As long as it is a decent quality emerald the treatment amount is so low and limited to the surface, which is quite easy to have removed.
