Hi friendly diamond folks,
My sister just inherited all Grandma's jewelry and I am hoping to get engaged soon. My sister has kindly given me one of the bigger rings. My Grandmother got this on a cruise from an older James Bond type guy and we thought it was fake. It isnt because we found the EGL report for it:
1.51 carat
ROUND BRILLIANT
7.53 - 7.48 x 4.43 mm
Depth 59%
Table 57%
Crown 13.8%
Pavillion 42%
Girdle: VERY THIN TO SL. THICK POLISHED
Pol/Sym GOOD
Cutlet NONE
Flourescense NONE
Its rated an F colour and I2 clarity. I can see just by looking at it that it has a single biggish black spot. I read here about clarity enhancement to remove spots like http:///www.oved.com/ which I will certainly have done if I decide to give this ring. I could not possible afford anything like this otherwise.
My question (finally) is that this ring scores 0.1 on the HCA index. Is that possible or an error ? Is this ring worth having the spot removed ? What would that do to its value or insurance premium ? And finally I have no idea how much its worth and I am curious.
Thanks for all comments and help
Kind Regards
Tomkat
