I came across this Diamond from a broker that I had contacted, I was wondering what the knowledgable people at pricescope thought about it and if the price sounds in line. I am going to try and go view the diamond this coming week.. Thanks

The crown angle looks steep to me... Try putting it through the HCA (https://www.pricescope.com/cutadviser.asp).

Rob, I put it through the calculator and it came back Excellent on all 4 catagories at a .9 TVP. Even though it scored excellent on all 4, do you think it would be a bad performer to the naked eye???

In your original post, you list the crown at 40.6 degrees and the pavillion at 35 degrees. This is a weird combination. Maybe you meant to have these reversed, which would give a more optimal combination...
