Is there a big difference between a good cut and an ags000 cut. is it eay to see with the naked eye?

Is ags just as strict as GIa?

It mean their best rating for their definiation of cut, polish, sym.

Polish probably does not make much visual difference (I hear). I am shopping for the cut that I want but I am allowing polish and sym to be just very-good.

Remember when your speaking of the AGS report the second grade down for polish and symmetry is Excellent.

Excellent is GIA's best grade.

The true meaning of AGS000 is:
0 cut grade
0 clarity (Flawless)
0 color (D)

The slang term used today is as said in the last post meaning proportion, polish, and symmetry are all "Ideal" which equals a cut grade of 0. (Ideal being the AGS's top grade)

Cheers,
Steve
