I recently bought a diamond and I need some advice.
Since AGS changed their grading system in 2005 what is recommended for buyers who have a diamond with an AGS DQD from 1999?
Secondly, if I do decide to regrade what is the chance that the grading will change from the old AGS DQD?
My current AGS DQD 1999 states
RoundBrilliant
Cut Grade: AGS 0 Ideal
Polish: Ideal
Symmetry: Ideal
Proportions: Ideal
Color Grade: AGS 0 (D)
Clarity Grade: AGS 0 (IF)
Carat Weight: .505
Fluoresence: inert
Table: 57%
Girdle/Faceted: 1.0-1.7%
Cutlet: Very Small
Crown angle:35.8
Pavilion ange: 41.0
Crown:15.6%
Pavilion: 43.0%
Total depth: 61.2%
Should I regrade my stone with the new AGS system which includes light performance?
Finally,
The AGS DQD states that it has an inscription but I cannot see it. I have used a microscope with 40x lens.
What are my other options to completedly secure that this stone represents the details AGS DQD?
Someone told me to weigh the stone and someone else said they could not plot it since the stone was IF.
Please help me with my three questions, Should I regrade?,Should I regrade my current AGS 000 stone?, and no inscription, and what do i do?
Thank you
