This "common" one-year-type has proven to be extremely scarce in Gem. -Preussen

    Now that has to be as big an understatement as your Gem is beautiful. Quite a find, congrats!

    Thanks for sharing!

    Very nice addition Steve. Did you buy it raw or slabbed?

    Thanks to everyone for the nice comments.



    << <i> Did you buy it raw or slabbed? >>

    Dimitri, I bought it slabbed. I was outbid on it in a German auction about 4 years ago, before I realized just how hard Gems are to find, and it recently resurfaced & was slabbed. As 3Mark said, this one shouldn't be so hard, but it clearly is. -Preussen
