Hi,

Not all GIA diamonds come with inscriptions.

Your best bet in verifying your diamond''s quality, it taking it into an appraiser and having it looked at. (and there isn''t a "clarity level D." D is actually in reference to the color of the stone.)

I''m not in CA, so I''m not personally familiar with any appraisers, but PS has a list of professionals in your state.
