Miners Cut/Estate Diamonds

[aprilbeth]

What are they exactly? Do they hold value?

Do you mean "Old Mine Cut" (OMC) diamonds?

 

[aprilbeth]

Yes. I''m sorry I didn''t know thats what they were called

I love OMC''s, but don''t really know that much about them. Do a search and a bunch of threads will pop up. Here''s one that might be helpful: https://www.pricescope.com/community/threads/please-describe-an-old-mine-cut-and-an-old-european-cut.48086/

You might want to also check out OEC''s or "old European cuts" if you like vintage facet patterns.

Just like all diamonds, they aren''t really an investment and don''t hold value. But that being said, they usually are about the same price as newer cut stones...as usual depending on the cut/clarity/color.
