I saw this listed in the coins section. Take a look at his feedback. Is this a gimmick or what?

100 carats of raw amethyst is worth somewhere between nothing and a couple of dollars

the one stone he failed to mention was gravel.

Probably not, rough for most of the semi-precious gemstones is usually pretty cheap. (these stones are not a valuable as a lot of people think. Most people are only exposed to them through jewelers and the markup can be very high. Somehere around here I have a couple of 1/4 carat saphires that I have $18 each in and a six carat amethyst I have $15 in. These are faceted stones ready for mounting.) If you are interested in lapidary as a hobby this is possibly a good deal. I am but don't have the equipment or time. Might be something to take up when I retire.
