I would appreciate any input as to the time frame of the cut of this round diamond. I have searched quite a few sites and I think the more I search, the more confused I become. :)

It looks like it needs a good cleaning! Based on the larger table and teeny tiny culet I'll say transitional.
 
It could be a transitional, having said that the crown height, and style of the setting means it could be an average cut modern round brilliant we cannot tell from your photos.
 
Definitely needs a major cleaning but it looks like a modern RB to me.
 
Do the below pics help?

Could be a transitional. In the last profile pic, it seems the left prong is not touching the diamond.
 
Looks transitional to modern.
 
The stone has been reset. All the prongs are touching the diamond. I think the picture was obscuring the view. Prior to resetting the stone, I have been told the cut is everything from european cut to a transitional cut around the 1960's and 1970's. I am leaning more toward the latter. I was just really curious.
 
I happened to capture this picture today. Based upon this picture, does this look more European cut? Any help would be appreciated.

Now I'm leaning more toward early modern RB, those arrows are what we typically see in a decently symmetrical modern RB.
 
When you say early modern round brilliant, is this related to a time period? Also, I had it weighed before setting it. It weighed 0.74. I was told it is I in color and SI2 in clarity. Do you have any idea of it's worth. Thanks for the previous information provided!
