I just purchased a pre-loved AVC. Overall I'm very happy with it, but I'm curious why it's relatively easy for me to spot the inclusions. It was sold to me as being eye-clean, and also I thought SI2's were supposed to require magnification to see inclusions? Since it's an AVC it's graded by AGS, and it's my understanding they're pretty strict. I can see the inclusions from about 10 inches away in the right light - they're tiny but I can spot them. Pictures (I added circles around the inclusions):
The main/easiest one to see - a black speck right on top.
Sometimes I can also see a lighter cloud.
I guess my question is whether this is normal/expected for an SI2 grading? This is my first diamond purchase so I'm going off reading and research rather than experience. I know I won't be able to see them while I'm wearing it on my hand, so I'm fine with their existence as long as this is normal/acceptable for an SI2.
Thanks for the help!
