HOLY MACKERAL - it's not even ROUND?! Look at those "natural indents" on the sides? Looks like it went through a meat grinder! !
Did you find this in your ashtray?
I think I collected something like this in my backyard as a kid for my rock collection. But then again - my Dad also bought me petrified Dinosaur Dung for my collection too- - this may be worse that that! HAHAHA!
Wow,...
I guess fine polished piece of gravel,...
Am I supposed to guess how much is the asking price?
Well, I have seen similar quality offered at the trade show in Tucson last month,.. The diamonds were cut in faceted balls , cabs or polished balls.
The clarity was believe of not worse than this ,... The prices were at $350 per carat and the sales rep said this would be the latest trend in diamond jewelry. Guess what? they all looked interesting,... each one had different pattern!
But in the world of Gem quality diamonds,.. This is called the DOG,... Why?
Because it looks like dogs rear end,...
Value - none , if you can pay me to take it you got a sale!,...
Some poor diamond cutter was given a sows ear and told to turn it into a silk purse.
This is what Tom, the want-to-be diamond cutter would get to work with for the first year or so until he learned how to cut.
A long shot guess at how much they are asking for the beauty is probably....$900. Its not worth it to me, but somebody will actually buy this.

That was my guess too. Nephyte cutters have to practice with something. And if you can recoup some of your costs by selling the thing, why not? I agree, someone somewhere will buy this, if only as a conversation piece.
