Can you guys analyze my diamond.
I was looking at all the GIA cert and the AGS cert and the numbers are different? shouldn''t they be the same?
details:
GIA
round brilliant
6.02-6.05*3.60mm
.79 carat
depth =59.7%
table =58%
girdle =thin,faceted
culet =none
polish =vg
symmetry =vg
clarity grade = vs2
characteristics = Crystal, Needle
color grade =E
flourescence =NONE

There was a sticker on my original GIA cert and I''m assuming it''s AGS

7122TL ROUND AGS 1 Wt: 0.790
diam (5.99 - 6.04)x3.57 DV 0.8% 0
depth = 59.4%
table = 3.47mm 57.8% 1
crown = 34.0'' 13.9% 0
pavil = 40.5'' 42.6% 0
culet = 0.8 X V.small
girdle = 0.6Thin - 1.9Sl.Thick 1.1% 0

i paid $3338. If this means anything it scored .4 on the Holloway.

Thanks y''all

Slofizz, the numbers sound great (including HCA) and the price is rather reasonable. Both crown and pavilion agles are very nice.

The sticker is most probably Sarin measurements. The only thing which is just outside AGS0 is the table: 57.8% instead of 57.5%. 0.3% difference in the table size is virtually nothing.

Enjoy your stone.

Sarin does not always match the cert exactly, give some leeway for machine calibration and the like. Plus human error margin should be factored in too. Unless the differences were huge (e.g. table is 55 on cert but Sarin says 57) then I wouldn't worry.

You all were right!
Had it appraised by D. Atlas's Company in Philadelphia and we were very happy with the results. It was rated as a 1B American Ideal cut.

diamond = 3338
setting = 195

total = $3533

It was appraised at $6700.

thanks again guys for all the advice. pictures soon!
